| Powerful locomotive |
| A valuable addition has just been made to
the rolling stock of one of our railroads by the arrival of a heavy
draft engine, formerly employed on the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad.
It was brought to this city on Monday evening by the freight train,
over the {Virginia}
Central route, and is now at the company's shops, for the purpose of
repairs. It is a ten-wheeled engine, with truck in front. We learn
that it will take the place of the locomotive "J. R.
Anderson," now running on the short track which connects the {Richmond
&} Petersburg and Fredericksburg {Richmond,
Fredericksburg & Potomac} railroads. |
