Summary

Description

thumb|250px|A cropped version of this image, which was already on wikipediaThis image is the same picture as the one on the right, but from a different source[1] which shows that the previous image has been cropped. The picture was taken circa 1865.

This second source shows the locomotive standing at the station to be locomotive number 7.

This image suffers from half tone screening, but I haven't descreened it so as not to loose information. A decent file viewer (such as eye of gnome or the wikimedia software) will dynamically eliminate half toning if the image is displayed at lower resolution on the screen.

The picture is actually of the Mortuary station in en:Sydney, en:Australia not Rookwood station.
