View of San Jose looking south with Southern Pacific's Cahill railroad station centered in the frame. To the right of the large Cahill complex, the small frieght depot of the Western Pacific Railroad can be viewed. In 1922 to break the railroad monopoly held by Southern Pacific in Santa Clara Valley, the Western Pacific built a branch line into San Jose terminating at this small freight depot on Santa Clara Street. Also in the photo, left, are natural gas storage tanks.
