The image is filled with a sense of energy and anticipation as travelers gather at the station, ready to embark on their journeys. In the foreground, a woman in a floral dress and a hat adorned with a veil waits anxiously by the side of the road, her suitcase at her feet.

Behind them, the bus station's Art Deco sign looms large, its bold letters casting an intriguing shadow on the pavement.
