Summary
View of the Colorado and Southern railroad depot in Breckenridge, Colorado. A three way switch is in the foreground, splitting a single railroad track into three. A passenger coach sits on the left spur, followed by a freight car. A smoking engine approaches on the central track, and a crowd of people are gathered towards the right near the frame, gable roofed depot. Among them are horse drawn wagons and hand carts. Freight cars are on the right, with lettering that reads: 'C & S' and '8289.'
