Beyond railroad tracks, braceros wait in a large group for processing at the Monterrey Processing Center, Mexico.
Description
A crowd of braceros stand beyond the railroad tracks and wait for processing at the Monterrey Processing Center, Mexico. They come by train from the Monterrey Station in the city of Monterrey. Some of them also walk the way to the Processing Center, which is located 3 miles south of the city of Monterrey, Mexico. They will be processed to become farm workers in the United States. No less than 500 braceros are processed at this center each day.
