While a group of citizens await their train at the Northern Pacific Depot at
Monohon, the railroad crew poses on its hand car. This photo presents a couple
of interesting points to ponder. For one, the rail crew obviously was integrated
to some degree, with an American Indian joining them (second from the left).
Secondly the man standing on the right appears to be dressed in a style typical
of a locomotive engineer at the time. However there's no train in the picture
and the fact that people are waiting seems to indicate that the train has yet to
arrive. Was this the crew that was scheduled to take over for the one that's
bringing the train to Monohon?
