EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "100th MERIDIAN, 1866" we are transported back to a significant moment in American history. The image captures the directors of the Union Pacific Railroad celebrating a remarkable achievement - the completion of tracks reaching the 100th Meridian. Taken in October 1866, this stereographic view showcases the vastness and beauty of the Great Plains as it stretches out behind them. Standing proudly amidst a field of tall grass, these pioneers pose confidently for the photograph, their presence symbolizing progress and triumph. The construction efforts that led to this milestone were no small feat. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear the distant rumble of trains on newly laid railroad tracks stretching into infinity. The cowcatcher on display serves as a reminder of both danger and opportunity that awaited those who embarked on westward expansion. This photograph not only captures an important moment but also represents an era defined by ambition and determination. It is a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance in overcoming geographical barriers while connecting communities across vast distances. As we admire this historical artifact from Granger Art on Demand, let us reflect upon its significance in shaping America's landscape and fostering economic growth through improved transportation networks.
