Atlantic Canal Canals Coaling Cristobal Panama Terminal
EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating historical print captures the coaling plant at the Atlantic Terminal in Cristobal, Panama, circa 1915. The Panama Canal played a crucial role in global transportation history, revolutionizing maritime trade and connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The coaling plant seen here was an essential part of the canal's operations, providing fuel for ships passing through this engineering marvel.
The image showcases the industrial infrastructure of the early 20th century, with large machinery and workers bustling about their tasks. The sheer scale of the operation is evident in this photograph, highlighting the immense effort required to keep ships fueled and moving smoothly through one of the world's most important waterways.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported back in time to an era when steamships ruled the seas and international trade was booming. It serves as a reminder of human ingenuity and perseverance in overcoming geographical obstacles to connect distant lands and peoples.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this piece of history for us to admire and reflect upon. It is a testament to our collective past and a tribute to those who labored tirelessly to make such monumental feats possible.
