Travelling on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway

Isaac Shaw

Summary

Two trains pulling carriages, one above the other. The top one is called "JUPITER", this is pulling carriages which are enclosed with luggage on the top. On the side is written "LIVERPOOL TRAVELLER MANCHESTER/ RAILWAY - COMPANY", the last carriage is flat with a carriage attatched on it, with people sat in the carriage. The train underneath is called "NORTH STAR", the carriages are still covered but are more basic, with open sides from the waist up and no glass, so open to the elements.
