The agile 377-foot Freedom -- designed and built by a team led by Lockheed Martin -- will help the U.S. Navy defeat growing littoral, or close-to-shore, threats and provide access and dominance in coastal water battle-space. Displacing 3,000 metric tons and with a capability of reaching speeds well over 40 knots, Freedom will be a fast, maneuverable and networked surface combatant with operational flexibility to execute focused missions, such as mine warfare, anti-submarine warfare, surface warfare and humanitarian relief.

It is the sixth U.S. Navy ship to bear the name, and was named for the original HMS Boxer, which had been captured from the British during the War of 1812. Constructed at Ingalls Shipbuilding in Pascagoula, Mississippi, the USS Boxer launched on August 13, 1993. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54bd7057e4b054556ebfe495/54bd7069e4b06f2c55fb8e9c/1421701230668/USS_America_IngallsShipyard_PascagoulaMS_Launching_2012-005.jpg SHIP BUILDING - USS America (LHA-6) Launching of the USS America (LHA-6), the fourth American warship to be named for the United States of America. It was the first of the America-class amphibious assault ships for the U.S. Navy. Her mission is to act as the flagship of an expeditionary strike group, carrying part of a Marine expeditionary unit into battle. Her design is based on USS Makin Island (LHD-8). Built by Huntington Ingalls Industries, Pascagoula, Mississippi and launched June 4, 2012. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54bd7057e4b054556ebfe495/54bd7070e4b06f2c55fb8eca/1421701233109/USS_Nautilus_SSN-571_GeneralDynamicsCT_Submarine-001.jpg SHIP BUILDING - USS Nautilus (SSN-571) The USS Nautilus (SSN-571) represented a watershed for the U.S. Navy's submarine program. This was the world's first nuclear-powered submarine, a design improvement which allowed for a dramatic increase in range and operational flexibility. The Nautilus is also credited with forcing the shipbuilders to develop an improved quality control program. The USS Nautilus was launched on January 21, 1954 at the Electric Boat Division, General Dynamics shipyard in Groton, Connecticut.

In the foreground a previously cast bow stem can be seen as an example of what the New York bow stem will resemble. About 24 tons of steel was salvaged from the World Trade Center, which was destroyed in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Approximately 10-percent of the steel was lost when the foundry superheated the 48,780 pounds of steel to 2,850 degrees Farenheit.

This Sante-Fe type steamer was built at the American Locomotive Company- Brooks facility in Buffalo, New York in 1916 for the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern line (StLIM&S). The Missouri Pacific Railroad acquired the SF-63 class Sante-Fe locomotive after the StLIM&S merged with the Missouri Pacific Railway in 1917. Originally numbered 1501-1514 by StLIM&S, they were renumbered MoPac numbers 1701-1714 in 1924. The class was scrapped by MoPac in 1953.

The odd, elongated smokestacks were put on engines which went through the Cascade Tunnel in Washington. Purpose of the horizontal stacks was to carry the smoke beyond the cab. The original 2.63-mile tunnel completed in 1900 was supplanted by the present 7.79-mile one, the longest in the Western Hemisphere. This photo is a reproduction of the one taken in 1902.

Latest to join the engines of yesterday is a 1941 Allegheny steam locomotive, recently presented to the Henry Ford Museum by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway. The others, the 1831 DeWitt Clinton, first train to operate in New York (foreground), and the Sam Hill, a woodburner of 1860, have been museum pieces for years. Locomotive and tender of the Allegheny, No. 1601, weigh nearly 600 tons and are 125 feet long, compared to the Aerotrain power unit's 91-ton weight and 55-foot length.

The President, then Andrew Jackson, and members of his Cabinet, were on hand for the event. Shown above, the locomotive "Atlantic", pulling two Imlay double-deck coaches, led a procession of trains over the newly-completed line of the Baltimore & Ohio between Baltimore, Md., and Washington. One of the earliest of American steam engines, the "Atlantic" was built by Phineas Davis of York, Pennsylvania, and began operating on the B. & O. in the summer of 1832. Over the years it has been kept in operating condition and is now in the museum of the B. & O. http://www.boilermakermuseum.org/films/behind-the-scenes daily 0.75 2015-02-03 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54d126c9e4b081a6640603c8/54d126e7e4b05e3af80f761d/1422993553307/The+Crew01.jpg BEHIND THE SCENES https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54d126c9e4b081a6640603c8/54d126e5e4b052944b106d3e/1422993548420/PSGC_034_2-11-11.jpg BEHIND THE SCENES https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54d126c9e4b081a6640603c8/54d126e3e4b05e3af80f75f9/1422993543908/PSEC_Unit2_L-363ForemenMills%26Hoerner-11.jpg BEHIND THE SCENES BHPD>Film Stills>WAF_ProductionShots https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54d126c9e4b081a6640603c8/54d126dfe4b05e3af80f75d6/1422993983288/Nicole%27sFilmShots-3.1.jpg BEHIND THE SCENES https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54d126c9e4b081a6640603c8/54d126e2e4b052944b106d1d/1422993538486/Interview02.jpg BEHIND THE SCENES https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54d126c9e4b081a6640603c8/54d126dee4b05e3af80f75d4/1422993533057/IMG_4589.jpg BEHIND THE SCENES https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54d126c9e4b081a6640603c8/54d126dde4b052944b106d02/1422993527012/IMG_4347.jpg BEHIND THE SCENES https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54d126c9e4b081a6640603c8/54d126d8e4b05e3af80f75af/1422994046510/IMG_3965.jpg BEHIND THE SCENES - Boilermaker Craftsman Series https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54d126c9e4b081a6640603c8/54d126d8e4b052944b106cdc/1422993486809/IMG_3145.jpg BEHIND THE SCENES - Boilermaker Craftsman Series Interviews Wide Awake Films and the Boilermakers History Preservation Department conduct interviews at Athabasca Oil Sands in Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada for the Boilermaker Craftsman Series film set. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54d126c9e4b081a6640603c8/54d126d4e4b052944b106cce/1422993426539/IMG_2997.jpg BEHIND THE SCENES - Boilermaker Craftsman Series Filming on Location Wide Awake Films crew capturing an aerial shot of Athabasca Oil Sands in Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5489defbe4b0d70a8e61789d/54d126c9e4b081a6640603c8/54d126d4e4b05e3af80f757e/1422993325818/IMG_2671.jpg BEHIND THE SCENES - Boilermaker Craftsman Series-Iron Horse Reinactment Scene Finishing touches of hair and makeup for the Iron Horse reenactment scene, part of the Steam: Boilermakers and the Iron Horse segment of the Boilermakers Craftsman Series film set.
