EDITORS COMMENTS
"This historic photograph captures the sleek and powerful Streamline Union Pacific Train, an American innovation in high-speed passenger transportation. Fitted with a 900 Horsepower twelve-cylinder oil-powered diesel engine, this locomotive broke American railway records in 1934, completing the journey from Los Angeles to New York, a distance of 3334 miles, in just 56 hours 55 minutes. With an average speed of 62 mph and a top speed of 120 mph, this train was a marvel of engineering and design. The Streamline Union Pacific Train, also known as the "21st Century Locomotive," was a testament to the advancements in diesel-electric technology and set new standards for passenger train travel in the United States. Its streamlined design, which reduced air resistance and improved fuel efficiency, was a significant departure from traditional locomotive designs and paved the way for the modern trains we use today. This image, taken during the train's record-breaking journey, offers a glimpse into the rich history of American rail travel and the ingenuity of the engineers and innovators who made it possible."
