EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in transportation history. The image showcases a Mack railbus undergoing trials at the D&RGW Burnham Shops in 1926. The railbus, powered by a Mack combustion engine, was being tested for its potential use on the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad. The photo highlights the exterior of the railbus as it stands majestically outside the depot. Its sleek design and sturdy facade reflect the architectural style of the 1920s. The tracks leading up to the station serve as a reminder of its purpose - to revolutionize public transport. In this snapshot from the past, we witness an era when technology was rapidly advancing, paving new paths for locomotives like this one. The railbus represents innovation and progress in transportation during that time. As we delve into this piece of history captured through photography, we are transported back to a time when experimentation and testing were crucial steps towards improving public transit systems. This image serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our constant pursuit of better solutions. Preserved by Bridgeman Images, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance within the context of early 20th-century America.
