説明 | The damage to this station at Peronne is extensive, with the large wooden structure in the background looming precariously over the scene. The German truck referred to in the original caption appears to be an open-topped railway carriage, probably used at one time for transporting weapons and supplies. Here, it lies amidst the ruined remains of the station. Peronne was particularly vulnerable during the Somme Offensive of 1916. Situated on a bend in the River Somme, it was caught in the crossfire and, like countless towns and villages positioned at the Front, suffered tremendous devastation.[Original reads: 'OFFICIAL PHOTOGRAPHS TAKEN ON THE BRITISH WESTERN FRONT.
