        I believe Teddy Roosevelt had a "larger than life" personality. He was sometimes called "a steam engine in trousers!" #history

        It looks like the driver is in the elevated back seat on the right. Literally a backseat driver...

        Oh, bizarre. I was looking at the guy in the white hat or helmet standing in the front of the carriage.

        It actually occurred to me that it appeared to be a driverless car -- like what Google and Uber are dreaming of.

        The bikes appear to be Popes and the auto is a Columbia. Both were/are #Hartford companies! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia_(automobile_brand) …
