Description
English: Right side elevation view of the American steam locomotive West Point, built in 1830. (The smokestack has been truncated in this diagram.)

(Page 56 of the source text states that the closely related locomotive Best Friend of Charleston is "... here illustrated after the original drawings, which are in the possession of the American Society of Civil Engineers." This also appears to be true for West Point, since the drawings look similar and it was built by the same firm around the same time.)
