The image is a photograph of a wooden tool and goods van, specifically the Van N251, which was built at Port Adelaide until 1964 when it was replaced and obtained by the Museum. The van is a prime example of an early goods wagon in South Australia. It was built in the Islington workshops and issued to traffic on 29th October 1901. The external timber and screw style couplings are some of the unique features of this antique van. 

The photograph is in black and white and shows the front of the van, which appears to be old and weathered. The wagon is made of wood and has a sloping roof and a large window on the side. It is parked on a dirt road with a few trees in the background.

There is a text on the right side of the image that reads "Wooden Tool and Goods" and "Van N251". Below the text, there is a brief description of the tool and its purpose.
