I love the “atmosphere” in this picture. Reminds me of walking home from friends houses back when walking down the tracks wasn’t dangerous, just cold.

This is another angle taken the same time as this picture. A bit of post-processing in Photoshop was done.

You can’t help but have respect for these two when looking at this picture. Now, like the era they owned, they are surely gone. Theirs was a time when a 12 hour day was unquestioned, loyalty to the company was expected, and respect from an employer was returned. The work was hard and dirty, but also rewarding. In the days of cheap labour, companies were families, and you were taken care of, cradle to grave. In the days before a society of entitlement, you earned what you got, and got nothing you didn’t earn.

Plus I’ll bet that guy in the right could really fart.
