"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 the crowd in front of two opposing trains, 1926. The crowd fills the road from the left foreground to the right distance. Two opposing trains stand on the left. The train which extends towards the foreground has several colored flags hanging from its sides. Several people stand on top of that same train with a pile of logs bound in a wooden tray just next to them. Trees stand in a wall behind the trains.
