EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a moment frozen in time during the tumultuous era of World War II. This evocative print by Jack Delano showcases the bustling railway yards of Belen, where the Atchison Topeka Santa Fe Railway played a crucial role in transporting goods and troops across America. The image transports us to a bygone era as we witness men diligently working amidst an array of locomotives and train carriages. The vibrant colors bring life to this snapshot from history, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty and significance of this scene. Delano's lens not only captures the physicality of trains but also reveals something deeper about American society at that time. It speaks volumes about unity, resilience, and determination as people came together to support their country during wartime. This photograph is part of Delano's remarkable collection for the Farm Security Administration (FSA) and Office of War Information (OWI), which documented various aspects of American life during this critical period. Through his lens, he immortalized ordinary individuals who played extraordinary roles in shaping our nation's destiny. As we gaze upon "In the Santa Fe R. R. yards" we are reminded not only of America's rich railroad heritage but also its unwavering spirit in times of adversity. This image serves as a testament to our shared history and stands as an enduring symbol of strength amid chaos.
