1921 footage of the 1893 replica of the 1831 steam locomotive DeWitt Clinton pulling its train. Lots of "modern" machinery in the background. The replica still exists today, on display at The Henry Ford museum.

That's certainly a color choice you could make for your electronic product.
This thing smells like cigarette smoke and I'm surprised there isn't a built in ashtray.

Progress on my model of the 1832 locomotive South Carolina, designed by Horatio Allen and built by the West Point Foundry in 1831. This eight ton locomotive was the first doubled ended locomotive in the world, and the first eight wheeled locomotive in America. The concept was several decades ahead of what technology was capable of the time, and it was withdrawn from service in 1834 after two years of unreliable service.
I used wheels and other bits from a Bachman DeWitt Clinton set.

The Kapelleninsel and Amorinsel Monrepos are two islands on the lake behind Monrepos Castle near Ludwigsburg . The chapel island has a neo-Gothic church on a smaller scale (chapel). It was built in the English village in 1797 and moved to Chapel Island in 1803. In 1944 the chapel was partially destroyed. Cupid Island used to have a temple with a cupid figure inside. Only the foundations are left of him.
