The General Haupt


Today's picture shows the steam locomotive ,"The General Haupt". The picture was taken in 1863 in front of the roundhouse at the Alexandria, Virginia train station. This is a lovely locomotive, and to me it is the classic steam locomotive. after this period they started getting bigger and more streamlined. I wonder if any of this specific look are still operating.
