One of the oldest survivors of America's steam railroading era, this locomotive was built 29 years after the steam engine was first developed for transportation. Breese, Kneeland & Company of Jersey City, New Jersey also operated as the New York Locomotive Works and is represented by the No. 73 on the locomotive builders plate. The company used its standard style, based on a design patented by Henry Roe Campbell in 1836. Known as a 4-4-0 "Classic American" for its wheel configuration, this particular locomotive was manufactured in 1857 for the Milwaukee & Mississippi Railroad Company.
Believed to have been named "Spring Green", the locomotive served the upper midwestern United States for more than 30 years. By 1889, the Arizona & Southeastern Railroad Company, which later became the El Paso & Southwestern Railroad (EP&SW), had acquired it and converted it from a wood-burner to a coal-burner. The smokestack was also likely reconfigured from a funnel type to a straight type at that time. Calling it Locomotive No. One, EP&SW utilized it in the development of Bisbee, Arizona and in other mining and industrial operations in the southwest.
EP&SW retired Old Number One after more than 50 years of service, moving it to a park adjacent to company headquarters at 416 N. Stanton Street in 1909. Except for its brief role in the 1938 film "Let Freedom Ring", it remained there until 1960, even after the rail company became part of the Southern Pacific railroad system in 1924. In 1960, the railroad donated it to Texas Western College (now the University of Texas at El Paso), which placed it at the Centennial Museum. In 2000, the City of El Paso received state and national funds to restore the engine to its 1909 appearance, moving it to the present site at the Union Plaza Transit Terminal.

This gorgeous building in Montreal is both restaurant and hotel! Gotta love all the detailed architecture!
Arganzuela Street in Madrid, at approximately number 30 on that street, has this curious rectangular hole in a brick wall where there is a relief with the number two and the word "amor" (love) painted on it.
I have not been able to get anyone in the vicinity of the place to explain to me what the meaning or history of this relief is.
Searching on Google Maps I have seen that this rectangular hole did not contain the number two some months ago, but I have not been able to find anything else.
It is a real enigma of popular art in the city.
UN NÚMERO DOS, MADRID, 2024
La calle Arganzuela de Madrid, a la altura del número 30 de esa calle, aproximadamente, tiene este curioso hueco rectangular de una pared de ladrillo en el que hay un relieve con el número dos y pintada palabra "amor".
No he logrado que nadie en los alrededores del lugar me explicara cuál es el significado o la historia de este relieve.
Rebuscando en Google Maps he visto que ese hueco rectangular no contenía meses atrás el número dos, pero no he logrado encontrar nada más.
Es todo un enigma del arte popular ciudadano.
