Description
Photograph of the Southern Pacific railroad station in Yuma, Arizona, ca.1935. At center there is a train is making its way across the Colorado River via the railway bridge. Four cars are visible and a man leans off the last car, holding on with one arm. To his right, another man is at the station on foot, walking towards the train, and away from a number of wheeled palates. The Southern Pacific Hotel sign is partially visible here, in the extreme right. Fort Yuma on the California side of the river can be seen in the background.
