Working on the Railroad All the Live-Long Day


A tools photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park.
A real photo postcard showing a group of men working on railroad track maintenance (workers like these were sometimes called "gandy dancers").
The man on the left is using a track jack to adjust the height of a rail. The man next to him is posing with another tool, probably a sledge hammer. The boy in the middle is carrying a bucket. The fellow on the right is sitting on some sort of long bar—maybe a claw bar for pulling spikes—that appears to be wedged under one of the cross ties.
