Description: |
|
Bring home the allure of the rails with this hefty pewter bank, modeled after the Civil War-era steam locomotive, the General. Built for the Western & Atlantic Railroad in 1855, it was at the center of the Andrews’ Raid of 1862 – known today as The Great Locomotive Chase! That April, Union spy James Andrews and about 20 volunteers slipped behind Confederate lines. Their plan: to steal a train and destroy bridges and tracks along strategic W&A rail lines. But their plot was foiled when the General’s conductor leapt up and, with a few Western & Atlantic employees, gave chase… Bring the adventure home today, with this delightful replica bank. Measuring 7˝ L x 2 1/4˝ W X 3 1/4˝ H, your hefty bank is proudly made in the U.S.A.!
