DescriptionView of a steam locomotive train passing through the city. Steam rises from the engine's smokestack, and the cars are crowded with passengers. A few groups of men stand chatting beside the rails, including a Chinese man with a long pigtail at BRC. Two- and three-story buildings overlook the train, with beauties and guests watching from the verandah. The masts of ships anchored in the harbor can be seen on the horizon.
