EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the intricate apparatus used at the laboratory in the C & NW RR's 40th Street yards in Chicago, Illinois during 1942. Taken by renowned photographer Jack Delano, this image showcases the dedication and precision required to analyze solutions of metals utilized in locomotives and other railroad equipment. The vibrant colors bring life to this historical moment from America's past - a time when the country was deeply entrenched in World War II. The Chicago and North Western Railway Company played a crucial role in transporting troops, supplies, and materials across the nation during this tumultuous period. In this still image, we witness an intimate glimpse into the inner workings of a bustling railway yard. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation as technicians meticulously examine samples using specialized equipment. This laboratory served as a hub for scientific analysis that ensured optimal performance and safety for locomotives traversing vast distances. Jack Delano's masterful composition allows us to appreciate not only the technical aspects but also highlights our nation's commitment to innovation and progress amidst challenging times. As we reflect on this photograph today, it serves as a reminder of how far transportation technology has advanced since then while honoring those who dedicated their skills behind-the-scenes to keep our railways running smoothly during wartime.
