Summary

[edit]
Description Lincoln Funeral Train, Pennsylvania Railroad Depot, Harrisburg, Pa., 1865, by David Clark Burnite, 1833−1886, Albumen print, Chrysler Museum of Art. Note: Three hundred mourners accompanied Lincoln’s casket by train on its 13-day tour, which included an overnight stop in Harrisburg, Pa., on April 21, 1865. Also aboard were the remains of Lincoln’s third son Willie, who had become ill and died in Washington, D.C., in 1862. After Lincoln was killed, Willie’s casket was exhumed from its burial site in Georgetown and transported to Springfield, Ill., so that father and son could rest together. As the funeral train traveled across the nation, onlookers identified the precise carriage containing these two bodies by the extra flags on its side, seen in this photograph.
