Description:
In this black and white photograph a man, woman and two children stand in front of a railroad engine. They are dressed in late 19th/early 20th century style. The woman wears a dark, long skirted dress or suit and hat and holds a parasol. The mustachioed man wears a light suit and a high bowler hat. The children, standing in front of them, are dressed alike in dark, double breasted jackets over white, possibly sailor style blouses. They appear to be about 4 and 7 years old. The engine behind them is old fashioned with a wooden cab and a water/steam tank and bell in the front. There are tracks in the foreground. See notes. See #1993-126-01.
