Railroad Yard - Witnessing the Growth and Struggle of a Fast-Growing Town in 1930s Oregon
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, captured by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1939, transports us to the outskirts of Klamath Falls, Oregon. As America was grappling with the Great Depression, this railroad yard stands as a testament to both progress and hardship. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see an industrial landscape bustling with activity. Boxcars line up like sentinels along the tracks while chimneys from nearby buildings release plumes of smoke into the sky. The clothing worn by workers reflects the fashion trends of that era - simple yet resilient attire. Lange's lens captures not only a physical space but also communicates profound concepts. This image speaks volumes about communication itself - how railways connected towns and facilitated trade during challenging times. It reminds us that even amidst economic struggles, people found ways to transport goods across vast distances. The significance of this photograph is further amplified when considering its historical context. Taken under the auspices of Farm Security Administration (FSA) during their documentation efforts for government agencies such as Office of War Information (OWI), it serves as an invaluable record for future generations. As we gaze upon this heritage art piece housed within Congressional Library's collection at Library of Congress, we are transported back to a pivotal moment in American history – witnessing both progress and resilience against adversity through Dorothea Lange's discerning eye.
