Workers' houses, railway bridge and factory halls, Essen 1937

On raw, sandy ground a few plain rendered houses stand beside a narrow-gauge track with an overturned tipper wagon; the view swings across rows of low brick terraces and a steel trestle bridge carrying a track over the main line to the long halls and chimneys of a works on the horizon, and ends on an empty spoil slope below the factory skyline. Colliery and steelworks, railway and workers' housing were packed so close together in the Ruhr that no one could say where the town ended and the works began.
