EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases The Hiawatha, a streamlined American railroad locomotive that revolutionized train travel in the United States during the 1930s. The Hiawatha was a pride and joy of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul Railway Company, and was the first diesel-electric locomotive to be streamlined in the country. Built in 1935, this engineering marvel was designed to offer passengers a more comfortable and faster journey, as well as to boost the appeal of rail travel amidst the growing popularity of automobiles and airplanes. The Hiawatha's sleek, aerodynamic design, with its curved contours and smooth lines, was a striking departure from the bulky, boxy locomotives of the past. The locomotive's name was inspired by the legendary Native American leader Hiawatha, and the train itself was a symbol of progress and modernity. Powered by a diesel engine, The Hiawatha could reach impressive speeds of up to 80 miles per hour, making it a true marvel of the railroad industry. This photograph captures The Hiawatha in all its glory, as it proudly displays the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul Railway Company's logo on its side. The train's gleaming silver exterior, contrasted against the backdrop of the open countryside, is a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the railroad engineers and designers of the era. The Hiawatha represented a new chapter in the history of rail transport in the United States, and this photograph serves as a reminder of the transformative impact of technology on travel during the 1930s.
