DescriptionThis image depicts the exterior of the Santa Fe Depot near the Alvarado Hotel in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The train can be seen in the background just pulling into the station. A large crowd of people, some in military uniforms, can be seen standing on the platform waiting for the train. These people have various individual pieces of luggage as well as a few fully loaded luggage carts. Behind the crowd, a portion of the Alvarado Hotel's roof is visible. Several tall trees can be seen sticking up above the building.
