Description
We see two cars of a crowded tram, with youngsters and adult passengers clinging to the outside. Several women stand among scattered pieces of tracks and other construction debris, perhaps waiting for this or another available streetcar. On the other side of the street, behind the streetcar, is a large 19th c. style building; factory buildings are visible down the road.
