Scene following train attack by Mexican Bandits led by revolutionary Luis De la Rosa, near Olmito, Texas.
Smoke rising from burning timbers on a collapsed wooden railroad trestle bridge near Olmito Texas on the U.S.- Mexican border. (This is during a period of Mexican bandit attacks leading up to those by Pancho Villa and the subsequent Mexican Expedition AKA the "Punitive Expedition, U.S. Army.") The rails on the trestle bridge remain intact but are severely bent and twisted by the heat of the fire. They continue, with fragments of railroad ties, still attached, to extend across the span of the bridge, over a deep river bed. The next scene shows the aftermath with several men standing near a train with about six derailed cars. They wave when the camera focuses on them. In the background, next to two passenger cars, still upright, a man and two women are looking at the wreck. The men in the foreground are retrieving items from the train's mail and cargo cars, and have some piled up nearby. On man is writing notes. Closeup of what appears to be a policeman, in a cap, as he walks past men retrieving items from a partly overturned rail car. Camera focuses on wheels ripped from the bottom of the car. The officer in the cap, and a man in shirt and tie, who appears to be a business executive, converse briefly and the businessman leaves the scene. Next, are shown numerous articles, retrieved from the train wreck. They are laid out on a field near a train station and other buildings. Two box cars are parked on a track nearby. Two men are sorting through the articles on the ground. A small boy watches as a man briefly sprays water on some of the items laid out in the field. A train station is seen in the background along with numerous low buildings. Camera jumps to closeup of a steel door on the train station building. It shows three holes in the door, two of which seem to contain remnants of bullets or larger size ordnance, presumably fired by Mexican bandits trying to break into the high value storage room at the station. The bandits also burned a bridge at Tandy's Station to thwart responders.
