At the end of the tunnel is another arch revealing a train car on tracks and silhouetted figures. She wears a cloche hat with curled hair beneath with a shin length coat with a fur collar. She holds a clutch purse under her arm and papers in her hand while she crosses both arms over her stomach.On View
