This real photo postcard is not titled. The image is of a small train and three cars which look like ore cars. I'm guessing the little locomotive and cars were part of a coal mine operation. The card is postmarked from Murphysboro, IL, Oct 13, 1911, 1c stamp. The bridge looks pretty flimsy, even for a small train. Interesting historical image. The image is a bit light, otherwise good condition. Please see the scans for condition.

If a pattern appears on the image on your monitor it was produced by my scanner and the actualitem doesn't look that way.
