Item Details
There is a mural of Chinese Railroad Workers done by Amy Nelder at the Chinese Charity Cultural Services Center, Chinatown. These Chinese workers are wearing hats and using only hand tools. Historically, on April 28, 1869, a team of 848 Chinese railroad workers from Gwang Chou Province, set a world record, laying more than 10 miles of track in just 12 hours.
