Description
Photograph of a view of the railroad yard at the San Pedro harbor, [s.d.]. A large depot building is shown just to the right of center, flanked to either side by a network of railroad tracks. Farther right, the edge of the harbor can be seen, the bank bulwarked against the water with wooden pilings. A steam engine can be seen switching tracks at left, just behind piles of piping that are laid next to the tracks. The homes on Nob Hill are faintly visible on the ridge in the background.
