[Illinois Central Railroad Steam Locomotive at Dubuque Station]

Hoffman, Peter B.

Illinois Central Railroad steam locomotive, numbered 1106 is at the Illinois Central Railroad Station in Dubuque. There is a gray steam coming out of the top of the engine, and a white colored steam coming out of the bottom of the locomotive. A man is leaning out of a window in the train, looking at the back of the locomotive. To the right is other rail lines with a train on one of them. To the left is a building and a covered porch next to the locomotive. There is a buggy with a horse sitting in front of the covered porch. There is also a platform on wheels with metal barrels on top. There are groups of people standing next to the train and in front of the covered porch. On the left side of the photograph is two visible train cars. There is a light on a pole in front of the covered porch and in between the two locomotives. At the bottom of the photograph is, "IL Dubut?" Difficult to distinguish.
