Description
Passengers pose for group photo in front of an open air passenger railroad car on the Mount Tamalpais and Muir Woods Railway at Double Bow Knot half way (four miles) up Mount Tamalpais. Many passengers are wearing overcoats. At the top of the rail car it says "Mount Tamalpais". Mesa Station and the summit of Mount Tamalpais are seen in the background behind the train. The photo may have been cropped to only show that one railroad car.
