Synopsis
A paddle steamer, 'Post Boy', with a huge funnel, lies against a crowded quay. Gesticulating passengers stand on deck, and mount the stone steps of the quay. A sailor shouts through a speaking-trumpet. A family party with luggage and dwarfish footman, arrives on a quay to see a departing steamer.
