A vertically oriented black-and-white photograph depicts the symmetric interior of an empty train car. Centered at the bottom, a long aisle recedes into the distance toward a doorway. On either side, rows of dark, high-backed seats create repeating patterns in deep shadow. Bright overhead lights cast a shimmering reflection down the polished floor. Metal luggage racks line the upper walls, and posters are visible on the back wall.
