The "Raleigh" replica of the first steam locomotive to operate in North Carolina. Builtin 1927 by the Seaboard Air Line shops, it was donated to the Museum in 1965. The original was built in 1836 by C. Tayleur & Company, an affiliate of Robert Stephenson & Company in England. It operated on the Raleigh & Gaston Railroad which merged with the Seaboard Air Line in 1900 which later became part of the CSX.
