September/October, 1961
Cover:

THE problems of a "Life" magazine photographer had nothing on those of the fellow who took the pictures at the Road's $800,000 tunnel enlarging project carried out this year on the Rocky Mountain and Coast Divisions. In addition to contending with the noise of machinery ripping out roadbed as it bounced back from tunnel walls, and the whirlwind stirred up by "cyclone" fans that kept the air free of dust and fumes (both hardly noticed by the men on the job), not the least of his problems was getting anyone to stand still tor a picture. Since all of the work was done under traffic, everyone was "sorry, too busy".
