Three-panel artwork depicting a train scene. The train is on the bottom with a red and yellow locomotive and several red and yellow cars. The locomotive on the right has a black smokestack and green doors. People are standing on a bridge above the train and on a path behind it. There are trees, hills, and a pale pink and green sky in the background. A road with horse-drawn carriages is on the right. The artwork appears to be a woodblock print. The color palette includes red, yellow, green, black, and pink. Japanese characters are written on a sign on the bridge and a banner in the top-right panel. A small grey and black scale is at the bottom.
