Summary

[General description] The incompleted Adelaide Railway Station forms a background to this view of the railway platforms and lines. One of the trains is leaving the station under full steam whilst men are hard at work with picks and shovels on an adjoining line. The material in the large container on the left is probably coal or coke for fuelling the engines. [On back of photograph] 'Adelaide Railway Station / looking east from the Overway Bridge. / 1927 / Reproduced in the "Observer", Dec. 10, 1927.'
