An 1885 view looking toward the uptown side of Canal Street at St. Charles. Orleans RR horsecar no. 17 is looping around the Henry Clay statue to begin its outbound trip. A New Orleans City RR car is approaching the turntable on the lake side of the statue to complete its inbound run. The second picture below shows a detail of ORR horsecar 17 in the foreground of the main picture. The driver can be seen to be drinking from a bottle. Notice the minuscule clerestory on the Bombay roof of the car; this was typical of New Orleans horsecars. — Mugnier
