EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1908, offers a glimpse into the bustling activity of Antilla's wharf and railway yards in Cuba. The image showcases a vibrant coastal scene, where the deep blue sea meets the land, dotted with ships of various sizes anchored at the wharf. The railway yards, located in the foreground, are a hive of activity with men working on the tracks and trains loaded with goods ready for departure. The railway system played a crucial role in the transportation of goods between the interior of Cuba and its ports, facilitating the import and export of various commodities. Horses and horse-drawn carts are also present, suggesting that this mode of transportation was still in use alongside the more modern railway system. The buildings in the background add to the industrial charm of the scene, with their red-tiled roofs and whitewashed walls standing out against the clear blue sky. The trucks and trucks, some of which are being loaded with goods, further emphasize the importance of the wharf and railway yards as key hubs for the movement of goods. This photograph provides a fascinating snapshot of life in Antilla during the early 1900s, showcasing the interplay between traditional and modern modes of transportation and the bustling activity of the port and railway yards.
