EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, captured by Jack Delano in 1943, offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the Galewood yard of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad. The image showcases a general view of this bustling railway hub located in Chicago, Illinois during the mid-20th century. Delano's keen eye for detail is evident as he expertly captures the vibrant colors and intricate details of this scene. The photo depicts a freight train passing through the yard, with numerous freight cars lined up neatly along the tracks. The hustle and bustle of activity can be felt as workers go about their tasks amidst this industrial landscape. The fashion choices of individuals present in the photograph provide an intriguing insight into 1940s American dress styles. Their attire reflects both practicality and elegance, showcasing a mix of workwear clothing worn by railroad employees alongside fashionable outfits donned by bystanders. As part of his documentation for the Farm Security Administration (FSA) during World War II, Delano's photograph not only serves as a visual record but also highlights transportation's vital role in supporting America's war efforts at that time. Preserved within the Library of Congress' collection today, this historic print stands as a testament to Delano's talent for capturing significant moments in American history through his lens. It allows us to step back in time and appreciate both the beauty and functionality found within our country's vast railway system during this era.
