It was much admired by Michael Angelo Titmarsh, who noted that the fire in it looked red but might have been done with cobalt and pea-green.  It may be a response to a work by Thomas Talbot Bury which depicts the excavation of Olive Mount Cutting.  A farmer plows a field on the right of this work, while on the left some people are boating on a river.  At the center is a bridge composed of two brick arches which connects Taplow and Maidenhead.  A rabbit runs to take cover from the central object in this work, which approaches the viewer.  Also of note is the yellow-brown puff of smoke which dominates the left-center, and which is one of the title components.  FTP, name this 1844 landscape depicting a train crossing a bridge, a depiction of "the Great Western Railway" by J.M.W. Turner.
