To the right is the train station, with a steam locomotive approaching. A path crosses the field between these buildings, and a number of people are in the scene, some crossing the path towards the station. A number of cows, including two calves, stand or sit in the field, and there are flowering harakeke in the foreground. The rosy colour of the sky suggests it is early morning or early evening.
