EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back to the year 1870, capturing a pivotal moment in American history. The Union Pacific Railroad depot at La Grande, Oregon stands proudly as a symbol of westward expansion and progress. The image depicts a bustling scene filled with anticipation and excitement. Passengers are seen boarding carriages while others wait patiently on the platform for their train's arrival or departure. The steam locomotive no 63 is pictured, its powerful engine ready to propel travelers towards new horizons. In this snapshot frozen in time, we catch a glimpse of life during the era of old west transportation. The station itself exudes charm with its rustic architecture and vintage signage. It serves as both a gateway to adventure for those departing and a welcoming sight for those arriving. As we study this photograph, we can't help but imagine the stories held within its frame - tales of pioneers seeking fortune or starting anew in uncharted territories. This image encapsulates the spirit of exploration that defined America's growth during this period. Preserved by an anonymous American photographer from the 19th century, this print now resides in a private collection thanks to Peter Newark American Pictures. Its historical significance reminds us of how far our nation has come since those early days of railway travel.
