The sculpture features a miniature steam locomotive with detailed elements such as the engine, smokestack, and driving wheels. The materials appear to be metallic with a finish that gives it a worn, aged look, featuring tarnished silver and black tones. The locomotive is crafted in a style that reflects early train designs, with an open cab and decorative elements over the engine's body. The sculpture is raised on four large spoke wheels, positioned to appear in motion, as seen from the direction of the smokestack and front cowcatcher. The work suggests a piece of machinery that once might have been powerful and full-functioning, now appearing still and solid.
