EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a general view of the bustling Bensenville freight yard, located in Illinois during 1943. Taken by the talented photographer Jack Delano, this image showcases the impressive operations of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad (CMSTPP). The vibrant colors bring to life the rich history of America's railway system during the mid-20th century. In this snapshot, one can witness a landscape filled with steam locomotives and an array of freight wagons lining up on multiple railway tracks. The sheer size and magnitude of this transportation hub is awe-inspiring as it serves as a vital link for goods trains traveling across the country. The attention to detail captured by Delano allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur but also provides insight into fashion clothing worn by workers at that time. With its historical significance, this photograph was commissioned by various government agencies such as Farm Security Administration (FSA) and Office of War Information (OWI), highlighting its importance beyond mere documentation. Preserved within the Library of Congress' vast collection, this still image stands as a testament to both American ingenuity and industrial progress during World War II era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Jack Delano's portfolio, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how railroads played an integral role in shaping our nation's transport infrastructure while serving as a symbol for economic growth and development.
