EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the sleek and innovative design of The Zephyr, a train engine produced by the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad Company in 1935. The Zephyr, a streamlined locomotive, revolutionized the railroad industry with its modern and aerodynamic appearance. The engine's silver and aluminum exterior gleams in the sunlight, giving it an otherworldly, almost futuristic appearance. The fast train, a symbol of progress and speed during the 1930s, was a testament to the engineering prowess of the era. The Zephyr's streamlined body, with its smooth curves and rounded edges, reduced air resistance, allowing the engine to travel at higher speeds than traditional locomotives. The train's distinctive shape, known as the 'bullet nose,' became an iconic symbol of the streamlined design movement in transportation. The Zephyr's route spanned from Chicago to Denver, covering a distance of over 1,000 miles in just under 14 hours. This photograph captures the essence of the Zephyr's power and beauty, making it a timeless representation of the golden age of rail travel.
