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 {Richmond,} Fredericksburg
{& Potomac} railroads. |
