View out window of a railroad train moving through countryside in Formosa (present day Taiwan), during Japanese colonial rule. Two adults and a group of children stand on embankment and wave as the train passes just before it enters a tunnel. View from moving train toward rear of train, as it rounds a bend over a wooden trestle, shows that the steam locomotive is pushing the train, backwards, rather than pulling it. Mountains are covered in trees and other foliage. Vertical sign post written in Chinese. More bucolic scenery until the train approaches a large group of people with luggage and belongings, waiting beside the track, as if planning to board. A sign identifies the location as “Fun kiko” (Chinese characters read as “hu qi fen”). The train is stopped, and passengers have boarded. One woman is placing baggage in a lower compartment accessible by door in exterior of train. Underway, again, view from end car of train (front, since it is moving backwards) as switchman actuates control and train moves onto a parallel track, while another stopped oncoming locomotive waits for it to clear. The train returns to the main line again, having circled the stopped locomotive. Cargo of heavy timbers and similar things being moved on another train.
