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".
