Also on a railroad theme from Shorpy, check out Westbound Freight 1943 - Jack Delano, for the Office of War Information. March 1943. "Chillicothe, Illinois. Changing crews and cabooses of a westbound freight along the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad." You hardly need to see the picture itself after an evocative title like that…
