EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph by Jack Delano captures a moment in the wheel shop of the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad during World War II. The worn tires on locomotive wheels are being refaced on a remarkable machine, showcasing the dedication and skill of blue-collar workers in America's industrial heartland. In this image, we see a hardworking employee meticulously operating the machinery, surrounded by an array of tools and equipment. The atmosphere is filled with determination as he ensures that these vital components are restored to their optimal condition. This scene symbolizes not only the tireless efforts of individuals but also represents the larger contribution made by American workers during this crucial period in history. Delano's use of color adds depth to this snapshot from 1942. The vibrant hues bring life to an otherwise utilitarian setting, highlighting both the significance and beauty found within everyday tasks. As part of his documentation for the Farm Security Administration and Office of War Information, Delano masterfully captures a slice of American heritage through his lens. This photograph serves as a reminder that behind every powerful locomotive lies countless hours spent maintaining its essential parts. It pays homage to those who worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes to ensure efficient transportation during wartime America. Through Delano's lens, we gain insight into not just one man at work but also glimpse into an entire era defined by resilience and unwavering commitment to progress.
