Reverse description A period electric railway car rendered in fine detail occupies the upper half of the field, depicted in three-quarter perspective with overhead catenary wires visible. In the foreground, a group of period-dressed figures — men, women, and a child — are shown from behind, waving and gesturing in celebration as they greet the arriving train, evoking the inaugural journey of 1903. The legend PRVNÍ ELEKTRIFIKOVANÁ TRAŤ arcs along the upper rim, while TÁBOR–BECHYNĚ and the centennial dates 1903–2003 appear in the lower field.
