Cliff24G,
These are from a color photo book by Jack Delano, The Railroad Photography By Jack Delano.
Read online or buy the book.

I don't know what is with that site, but when I tried it yesterday, I never saw ANY photos, and then it caused my MAC computer to "lock up". I had to shut down and waited about 10 min, and everything is fine again.
I sure will NOT try THAT again.
Cool photos.

Lengthy slideshow of 88 photos would be better if edited down to the 20 or 30 best shots.
Worked fine today--what a different look at the era in color. A time when men were working men and we were producing product and not just services--a better time

Yes, that site is the BEST place to view any/all of Mr. Delano's fantastic images.
The most complete collection of Jack Delano's work is at the Library of Congress site.
