A steam locomotive placed on a railway turntable. Three men are posed standing on the train and a fourth man is visible on the tracks behind the train. A long brick building, possibly a garage for train cars, is behind the locomotive. The words "Old Colony" are painted on the side of the cart pulled by the steam engine.
