Labor Day
Beginning in the late 19th century, as the trade union and labor movements grew, trade unionists proposed that a day be set aside to celebrate labor. "Labor Day".
What better way to celebrate this holiday photographically then to share a photo of US Steels' Union Railroad, which of course is part of the United Steelworkers, one of the strongest labor unions in the world.
The United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union, commonly known as the United Steelworkers (USW), is a general trade union with members across North America. Headquartered in Pittsburgh, the United Steelworkers represents workers in Canada, the Caribbean, and the United States. The United Steelworkers represent workers in a diverse range of industries, including primary and fabricated metals, paper, chemicals, glass, rubber, heavy-duty conveyor belting, tires, transportation, utilities, container industries, pharmaceuticals, call centers and health care.
USS has parceled the railroad off to Transtar in recent times. The system today may have moved on to other representation such as the United Transportation Union, (UTU), or the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, (BLE).
