Pardon Our Progress

Train travel is not a mode of long distance transport that one uses to get places quickly in the United States (sigh, would that it were), but it is a mode of transport that helps you construct the DNA of our nation. Watching the land roll past the windows as you eavesdrop on, and converse with, the multitude of humanity that tumbles down the tracks along with you uncovers the scaffolding that is our country, its land, its people. Taken in the summer of 2018, this scaffolding proved a patient photography model during a layover at Chicago\’s Union Station.
