Photograph of the Southern Pacific Railroad Station at the Yuma Hotel in Yuma, Arizona, ca.1900. The two-story hotel is visible to the right, with a man in a horse-drawn cart and several bystanders partially visible in front, obscured by several trees. A train of railroad cars pulls past along the tracks to the left. A post-and-rail fence separates the road to the right from the hotel, just as a picket fence separates the hotel building from the front lawn a little further back. A collection of buildings is visible along the horizon in the distance above the hotel's roof.
