Looks like a coal mine or some industrial subway.

Interesting thought. Coal was instrumental in the development and prosperity of the United States. Now it's detrimental to our survival and that of the planet

Things change. Natural gas has pushed it aside totally. Mining coal was always a nasty, dirty, and dangerous life and death.

An interesting looking depot, for sure, what with an enlarged bump-out on the platform (presumably for the station agent/dispatcher) and the exposed truss-work for the roof overhang. Any idea of the location?

Great plains but possibly not the US. Those look like Canadian grain elevators (to the left and upper right). Too low resolution to read the printing on the express car and station or the building in the center of the photo.

I thought I saw a few arrows buried in the side of that baggage car.

What do you think that inscription means?
Anything like "More cow bell"?

Maybe the triangle refers to the "dinner bell"? That shot is either very early in the morning or very late in the evening. Extremely strong side lighting. I would guess evening. Doubt that they gather like that for breakfast.

That would be my interpretation,

That makes sense.
