"Wedding of the rails", showing a man and woman in costume, 1926

Photograph of "Wedding of the rails", a re-enactment of the ceremony celebrating the connection of Los Angeles and San Francisco by the Southern Pacific Railroad, showing a man and woman in costume, 1926. The elderly woman stands on the left in a dark dress and bonnet with a sash across her chest that reads "Covered Wagon Babies, California's Diamond Jubilee". She wears small, dark glasses just like the elderly man on the left. His suit consists of a long jacket, lightly-colored vest and a dark, thick bow tie. He has a lightly-colored bear and wears a dark top hat on his head. The two people face each other.
