    Thank you for this excellent overview of the WPA and its artistic ventures. How I got here: I was reading Steinbeck's "Travels with Charley". Halfway through the books Steinbeck laments that he did not bring along his 48-volume set of the WPA State Guides. I'd never heard of these books, so I scrounged around the web and found all of them, and the WPA Region and City guides, too. I realized that my understanding of the WPA's breadth was lacking. Some more searching on TH-cam, et voila.

    My father worked as a flagman on the caboose for the New Haven Maybrook line. When I was seven (1964) he took me with him to work, and I first crossed that bridge in the caboose with him. The second time, and just before he retired about a year later, he took me again, this time I got to ride in the lead locomotive! I cherish those memories. Boh times we were traveling west bound to Maybrook. Little did I know that only a year later, (1969) I would lose my dad due to a heart attack. So yes, that bridge has a place in my heart. I still live in the area, and have walked it many times
