Description: A train on the narrow-gauge railway line running down the centre of Ellen Street, Port Pirie. It comprises a steam locomotive, loaded 4-wheel wagons, a passenger car and a four-wheeled (six?) brake van. An empty four-wheeled wagon is some metres behind the train. The street is lined with shops and public buildings. The original Ellen Street station building – a small shed – is outside the photo on the left; the station building in Victorian Pavilion style was opened in 1902.
