View inside a vintage railroad passenger car. A young family sits facing each other in the convertible bench seats, which have cast-iron frames. The floor of the car is wood, and a coal burning stove stands in the corner, with a stovepipe leading up into the ceiling. This is one of a series of photographs staged to be used for an article in Life Magazine in 1950.
