Description
Photograph of a beet dump on the Southern Pacific Line south of Myrrh Street parallel to Alameda Street, 1910. A long wooden trestle is pictured coming to a peak at left, where carts of sugar beets drawn by horse-and-carriage are being dumped into what appears to be a railroad car below. The train of carts extends the whole length of the trestle to the right. A post-and-rail fence is visible in the foreground.
