Railroad Wipers, Late 1850s - Preserving the Legacy of African American Railway Workers

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a group portrait of railroad wipers from the late 1850s. Created by an unknown photographer, this image provides a glimpse into the lives and work of African American men who played a crucial role in America's burgeoning railway industry during the 19th century. In this powerful snapshot, we witness these dedicated workers standing proudly as they pose for the camera. Dressed in their work attire, these laborers exude strength and resilience. Their faces tell stories of determination and pride as they fulfill their duties on the railways that connected cities across the United States. The Metropolitan Museum of Art has preserved this salted paper print from a glass negative, ensuring that their contributions to transportation history are not forgotten. This photograph serves as a testament to both individual identities and collective heritage within African American communities. As we admire this remarkable piece of heritage art, let us acknowledge these unsung heroes who labored tirelessly behind-the-scenes to keep America moving forward. Their occupation may have been physically demanding but it was also essential for progress and development in our country. Let us honor these working men whose names remain unknown but whose impact on shaping America's transport system is undeniable. Through photographs like this one, we can pay homage to those who helped build our nation while highlighting their invaluable contributions to society.
