The image shows a railway with two tracks running parallel to each other, leading into the distance. To the left, there is a large shed identified as Brackett's shed. A steam shovel is visible near the tracks further along. A house is on the right side of the tracks, and piles of stones are located nearby. The area appears to be near Bellevue Street in Newtonville, Newton, Massachusetts.
