The image, part of the Kean Collection/Getty Images, exudes an air of nostalgia as it transports us back to a time when steam-powered locomotives ruled the streets. The scene is filled with energy and movement. Thick plumes of smoke billow from the train's chimney, creating an atmospheric backdrop against which people crowd the streets below.
