View down center of tracks along platform towards the railroad depot. Two men are standing on the platform near two carts. On the platform are two wooden crates which read on the side: "Potosi Brewing Co." A large pile of what may be bricks are stacked behind the depot on the left near barns and industrial buildings. There is a tree-lined bluff in the far background.
