It's only a flesh wound!

>Also, I assume the Demologos is a Steamrunner-class?

Yep. (The giveaway, apart from the etymology of the name, is that the second digit in the hull number is 7. The Defiant-class ships are the 06000 series.)

>And here I was thinking they were all named after trains...

Not all, no. Some are also named after other steam-related things; there are Steamrunners named Thomas Newcomen and James Watt as well, for instance, and one called Le Napoléon (after the first steam-powered line-of-battle ship).
