YESTERDAY! Back in the late Forties the doughty Pioneer, operating over some
forty miles of strap rail, was the first locomnotive in service from Chicago to the West.
TODAY! The Giant Class "H", largest dual-service locomotive in the world, now
in service on the Chicago & North Western Ry., is capable of a speed of 85 miles an
hour: can haul 150 loaded freight cars (a train about 1 miles long) at a speed of
50 miles an hour!
