What the image shows
A black-and-white photograph looking along a deep excavated trench through open ground, with steep earthen banks and a narrow channel of muddy water running along the bottom. A tall derrick or crane boom leans over the trench on the right, with a small wooden shed and trees behind it, and several workers stand near a plank bridge and steam rising in the distance at the far end. Scattered tools, timber and cable lie on the trench floor and banks, and the watermark-style credit 'Archives de la Ville de Montréal' appears in the lower right corner.Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
