James Andrew and The General Locomotive

 

James J. Andrews looking out of the window of his room on the 2^nd floor of the hotel by the railroad station.  He and his gang are about to take the General Locomotive on a Joy Ride.   They are yankees.

Actually, that is the history of the images.  In this case James J. Andrew is a mannequin in the Marietta History Museum.

The real James Andrews really did that, and got caught near Ringgold, Georgia.  He was hung as a spy in Atlanta, on the outside of Oakland Cemetery.

Two movies was made about THE GREAT LOCOMOTIVE CHASE.
