A railroad track runs down the center and left side of the image, curving around to the right. A short carriage is sitting on the track, with another one at the curve. The log is sitting on both carriages and due to its extreme length, the track curves around it to the left. Painted on the end of the log are the words 151 ft long/Scale 8000. Four men and a boy are standing on top of the log, and another man with a white beard is sitting on it. A seventh figure is standing on the track. In the background are what appear to be burnt-over trees.
