It was on the Baltimore and Ohio line. I do not know if the train , itself, had a name.

Jackson rode it for about 12 miles, in order to get into the city of Baltimore from

the Washington Turnpike.

Which US presidents were born in a log cabin?

Andrew Jackson would be a good guess and is right if Jackson was indeed born in a log cabin. Details about Jackson's birth are not known but his family was poor enough that a log cabin is surely possible. If Jackson was not born in a log cabin, then Zachary Taylor is the next possibility. However Taylor's birthplace is also uncertain and although some think he was born in a log cabin, he may have well been born in a frame house. Millard Fillmore was certainly born in a log cabin and is first if Jackson and Taylor do not qualify. Thanks for the feedback
