Passengers wait on a crowded train platform of the Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad in the town of Creede, Colorado, in Mineral County. Bearded men sit or stand atop train cars in front of a platform at the tracks. One of the three tracks is higher on the grade than the other two. Crowds of people wait around the elevated passenger train platform with luggage, crates, furniture, and a mattress. Smoke rises from the front stack of the passenger train.
