    Proviso and 40th St. were two different yards. This is Proviso, this is 40th St. The locomotive shop is now in use by Union Pacific and referred to as M19-A.

    See here for a 1983 photo of the shop and explanation of its location.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    iris.schimandle: Thanks for the correction! We've updated all 19 affected records in our own catalog ( http://www.loc.gov/rr/print/catalog.html), and the information will be updated in Flickr soon, too.

    Again, according to the historical society the shops were at 40th St., not Proviso. So the caption seems to be correct, but the note accompanying the picture is not.
  • iris.schimandle said:
    Also, subject would be Chicago, not Melrose Park.

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Man @ work, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    I like how this collection isn't just a selection of best works, they also include the various takes that were done by the artist.

    this makes me think of the photo on the cover of "an introduction to error analysis", which is of a train coming out of an upper story window at the Montparnasse station in France :) this is the photo they used: www.uscibooks.com/Taylorposter.jpg
