Description

A narrow rail track curves across the foreground beside excavated trenches, cut stone walls and loose blocks. Several small figures stand and crouch near the left background by a tipping wagon, and more ruins extend toward the centre. The coastline and open sea run along the right edge, with a lone small tree near the shore.
