VET ENGINE
IN CHICAGO

People of today who are so used to
locomotives that tower as high as a
house, weigh as much as skyscraper
and could pull Mt. Everest out by the
roots can hardly realize how small
and crude the engines were during
the early days of railroading in this
country. AS we recently related, New
York has been proudly exhibiting the
De Will Clinton. And now Chicago has
trotted out her oldest engine.
This engine was built in Philadel-
pha and it made it's first run in 1848.
1t was great improvement over the
Clinton which dated back to 1881. The
Clinton was little more than a boiler
and engine assembled on wheels, with
an ordinary stove-pipe for a smoke
stack The Chicago locomotive is real
ly quite respectable ancestor of the
present great colossuses. 1t has the
faring type Of smokestack which was
used on nearly all railroads down to
about so years ago, and it has well
developed cab for engineer and fire
man. This engine was long on the G.
& N. w. railroad.
