A really cool park worker. She is a hard worker and as nice as can be. She was happy the temps are out of the high 80's and back into the high 50's or low 60's.

Model of a relief sculpture of railway worker adorning Omaha Union Station's exterior (now the Durham Museum).
Omaha Union Station (1931) was one of the first Art Deco train stations in the United States. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, the Station was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2016 (the designation noted that the Station "is one of the most distinctive and complete examples of Art Deco architecture in the nation. . . [and] outstandingly expresses the style’s innovative and diverse surface ornamentation inspired by the machine age.") See here for more on the station's architecture and history.
Omaha Union Station closed for rail service in the 1970s when a new Amtrak station opened nearby. The Station now houses the Durham Museum. As noted on the museum's website, the Durham showcases everything from "permanent exhibits highlighting the history of Omaha and its surrounding regions, to impressive traveling exhibitions from our national partners such as the Smithsonian Institution, the National Archives, the Library of Congress and the Field Museum."

Then they carry the load of as much as 90kg to the top of the rip (about 200 meters) and then several kilometers down the mountain. They make this journey two or three times a day and earn on average of us$5 a day.
Bear that in mind next time you gonna complain about your job.
I think the man on the right side is a chimney-sweeper. He is barefooted because working on a slippery roof was safer without shoes.
I have no clue about the three men with white work coats and I cannot identify what they are carrying on their shoulders. Could it be that they are stove fitters? I think there must be a relationship to the chimney sweeper.
