Case Study: The Waushakum Live Steamers

Railroad Terminals. With a railway station within walking distance to McBride Financial Services, precautions must be made to mitigate derailing of train cars. Railway cars contain a great deal of mass. When you combine that with velocity, you obtain force. A runaway rail car could obtain enough force to destroy sections of McBride Financial Services. With that in mind, it is essential that McBride invest in precautionary measures. This could include crafting railway dunes to prevent railway cars from colliding with McBride’s structures.

Powers consisted of six paintings – Conversation: Sky and Earth, Primitive Power, Rolling Power, Steam Turbine, Suspended Power, and Yankee Clipper. All six were produced in 1939 (Friedman 22). Rolling Power was strangely not a painting of a full train; it was simply just two big drive wheels and a bogie wheel, which made me question why would Sheeler zoom in so much? These three wheels are the sole power that makes the train move. The wheels give the purpose to the painting, actual rolling power. The two big drive wheels are next to one another and take up the majority of the composition. The bogie wheel falls in line next, with the puff of smoke near it. Near the wheels, Sheeler added a puff of smoke that conveys movement of the train. Is the train moving backward or forward? The smoke does not show a trace of where it may begin, just the roundness of the small cloud. Train designer, Henry Dreyfuss’, had made the most efficient and powerful railroad engine available in 1939. Sheeler’s color palette was a mixture of browns and grays in frieze, low relief. Some areas on the train were darker and brighter, suggesting shadows and the sun’s reflection on it. Sheeler had started painting during the day, which can be determined how the sun is cast on certain parts of the train. How was he able to paint in such a short time to keep the lighting just right? After all, he was also talented in photography. Sheeler would take photographs of his studies to keep their composition and come back to continue his work (Friedman 13). He had to do this in order to have a consistent image to look off of since the sun would not produce the same lighting when it was at another time. Taking an image also aided in the production of his painting because the train would also be constantly active. “The dependency on photographic studies culminated in the hyperrealism of

Walking along the tracks of what once was the Marietta & Cincinnati Railroad today, the still-functioning railroad appears forgotten, left behind as American reliance on cars grew and the need for railroad tracks waned. Apartment complexes and commercial centers block any view of the railroad from the street, once again demonstrating how little commercial developers care about this railroad now. But this forgotten railroad was far from unimportant in the development of Oakley, a neighborhood in Cincinnati, which grew significantly after the Marietta & Cincinnati Company established a station in Oakley in 1866.[1] From the very first railroad stop in Oakley to the streetcar system executed by the Kilgour family, public transportation has been

To understand the special role quilts may have played in the Underground Railroad, we first have to understand the life and times of the people who lived during the years the railroad was running, approximately 1830-1862. These times were politically turbulent and impossible to summarize in a few brief paragraphs. This article should be considered an overview only.

One of the biggest inventions of the time was the locomotive or the “Rocket.” The Rocket was “built by Robert Stephenson and Company of Newcastle Upon Tyne” (Doc. 1). The machine could travel about 25 miles an hour. This machine took so long to build with steel . Workers worked long, hard, and hazardous hours with immense heat and lack of safety guards. The hard labor was hard for those workers but the rich didn’t seem to mind. Actress Fanny

Every journey on the Underground Railroad was different, but most during the mid 1800s, the height of the Underground Railroad, would look similar to this.

Orphan trains is a documentary about children in New York, being sent on trains to other parts of the country, in order to find families and be taken care of. There are stories from, adults that actually rode on these trains when they were children. The Orphan Trains was started by a man named Charles Loring Brace in 1854. Brace, had traveled to New York in the early 1850’s, and was horrified at the conditions of all the children he saw on the street. Brace felt that it was a duty to help these children out, and decided that the only way to help these children was to get them away from their surroundings, and send them away to be raised in nice, Christian homes around the country. So, in 1853, Brace founded the Children’s
