Philadelphia & Erie Railroad steam locomotives with people, possibly crew members, standing nearby, late 19th century. A newspaper clipping affixed to the reverse side reads, "The Other Side. The other day, says the Detroit Free Press, an engineer of the Central road had to stop his train near the junction and pull a drunken man from the track, the fellow having laid down and fallen asleep. "You fool, you!" shouted the engineer, "suppose you had been run over by the train" "You (hic) fool, you!" stammered the inebriate, "s'posin' I'd (hic) run over your blamed old (hic) cars!"
