Russian POWs from Galicia

Notes:

Thousands of Russian prisoners climb aboard trains at the railway station at Stryj enroute Austro-Hungarian prison camps after their capture in the Spring 1915 Galacian campaign. Austro-Hungarian troops stand on the station platform. The hut on the first car in the foreground offers protection to the Austrian sentry assigned to guard the prisoners on that car.
