Photograph. Sepia-toned photo showing two workmen who are holding onto the ladders on the sides of a railroad boxcar. Handwritten text on the lower and right edges shows "W.B.J. [Warren B. James] and Roy Shinn, volunteer switchmen, M.C. yards, Detroit, May, 1920" and "from M.C. Bridge Dept." The photo was probably taken during the switchmen's strike at a Michigan Central railroad yard near Detroit.
