Photograph of a railway embankment. In the foreground is the railway, and in the midground a steep bluff, on top of which an unidentified man in a suit and a bowler hat is standing. There appears to be a road lined with electric posts close to where the man stands. An earlier catalogue record from 1988 notes that this is the view of the Great Northern Railway just north of Brunette Creek on North Road. Also, it notes that the road running by the man is North Road.
