From the Getty Museum record

View of Burnside Wharf along Aquia Creek in Virginia, from atop a train car sitting on the railroad tracks that run parallel to the shore. The wharf is visible on the right side of the train cars, with a docked sailing ship in the foreground beside the small buildings and small boats that line the wharf. Several men are scattered along the wharf.
