Crowd gathered on wood platform on stilts over water; train decorated with wreaths of flowers to right of train; rail causeway over water in centre of image; mill and forested area in background.

Note: Date of 1887 originally noted must be a mistake as Leonard Frank did not arrive on the west coast of North America, and more specifically in Vancouver or Victoria, until 1894. See "An Enterprising Life: Leonard Frank Photographs 1895 - 1944" by Cyril E. Leonoff.
