EDITORS COMMENTS
Ableman's Narrows, railroad crossing, c1898: A captivating snapshot of history unfolds in this monochromatic image of Ableman's Narrows railroad crossing, taken around 1898. The location, believed to be in the United States, likely in Wisconsin, showcases the Baraboo River's narrowest point where the train tracks have been carefully laid. The railroad bridge, an engineering marvel of the time, is a testament to the country's burgeoning transportation infrastructure. The photograph, measuring 8 x 10 inches, was captured using a dry plate negative or glass negative process, a common photographic technique during the late 19th century. The image, devoid of color, is a stark reminder of the era's simplicity and the raw beauty of nature. The railroad bridge, with its intricate details, stands out against the backdrop of the serene river, creating a striking contrast. The image's creator remains unknown, but it is believed that the photograph was taken by either Edwin H. Husher or William A. Livingstone, both prominent photographers of the time. The photograph is now part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, a testament to the importance of preserving historical records for future generations. The railroad crossing at Ableman's Narrows is a poignant reminder of the transformative power of transportation in shaping the country's landscape and connecting communities. This image, with its rich history and intriguing mystery, continues to captivate viewers and transport them back in time.
