How Many Modes of Transportation Can You Find?
In 1914 while on a motorcycle trip to Washington, D.C., Lee Roy Stoner of Kingwood, Pennsylvania took this photograph of the United States Capitol. You can see some work being done to the east central steps, as well as several modes of transportation. We count five. How many can you name? We'll give you two—motorcycles and walking. You may have to look closely to see the other three. If you find more, let us know.
