Description
A locomotive pulling two open air passenger cars filled with passengers is seen from the rear as it begins to cross a bridge in a forest like setting. A workman is seen on bed of cross ties either laying or removing a second track. Another man, perhaps the conductor of the train, is standing on some cross ties on that second track in the foreground.
