Group - Another old Q locomotive print is presently for sale on EBay. It
shows wood burning inside-connected 4-4-0 type No. 27 named Grey Hound on the
Aurora roundhouse turn table in 1860. I've inserted/attached the image
below:
The same image appears in the Corbin book on page 11, although not
identified as to location or date. The archaic 4-4-0 type was built by the
Amoskeag Manufacturing Company in 1855. The locomotive appears to be
beautifully decorated in brass trim and colorful paint scheme. Grey Hound
also appears in the Corbin book on page 254 within the May 1858 roster. Best
Regards - Louis
