Shorpy Home Front Photos: On the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe

October 2, 2014, LUX AETERNA: 1943.  Brakeman on the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad in the caboose.  By Jack Delano, OWI.    Jack Delano sure rode the rails a whole lot during the war.  Shorpy has had many, many train photos by him.

Of course, the railroads were a major way of transporting troops, civilians and armaments.
