Main Street

Main Street | Photograph | Wisconsin Historical Society
Elevated view down Main Street, which crosses railroad tracks in the foreground. There are two signs in the foreground which say: "Look Out for the Cars" and "$500 Fine for any Person Riding or Driving Faster Than a Walk over this Bridge." The two cows idling across the bridge appear to be obeying them both!
