This sculpture is the Pennsylvania Railroad World War II Memorial, featuring Walker Hancock’s statue, Angel of the Resurrection, inside Philadelphia’s 30th Street Station.

The main inscription engraved on the front of the black granite base reads:

IN MEMORY OF THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THE PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD WHO LAID DOWN THEIR LIVES FOR OUR COUNTRY 1941 – 1945

“That all travelers here may remember those of the Pennsylvania Railroad who did not return from the Second World War.”
