Old Engineer Tells of Wood-Burning
Days When Engine Crews Had to
Get Out and Cut Fence
Rails for Fuel.
They were just in from their "runs,"
those two old locomotive engineers.
They were lulling a train dispatcher
at a club over In Kansas City, Kan.,
how they rode tliclr engines through
a stbriii that, raged two days and over
roadbeds that had In n softened by
the heavy rain and melting snow.
"it was about the worst storm for
thc 1< uglii of its duration I ever rode
through," said one of the engineers.
' ll a. raining and blowing when I
went out and it was raining and blow-
ing when ! came In."
While the engineer was talking Cap-
tain James B. McOonlgle, a veteran of
the inad. long aiuca retire.!, joined the
group.
All, my boys," the eaptalu said, as
tie drew up a chair. "You fellows who
know a whole lot about railroading
may have some rough experiences,
with all your modern equipment, hut
you don't have anything tike the ex-
IM l ienees we had back in Ohio in the
'50s. You've got to make 'time' and
go by the train dispatcher’s orders or
off goes your head, in the early days
we had no telegraph and we didn't
have a train dispatcher forever pester-
ing us with his orders, so we run the
train just about as we pleased; but
then wo had plenty of handicap*.”
"Yes, but that wasn't railroading at
all.” protested the old engineer who
rides in a big locomotive that weighs
as much as a small train of the old
days. "In those days you hardly ever
carried u dozen passengers on a trip.
The people wouldn't ride on your train
and i don't blame them, either, for
they never knew when they started
whether they would get there, ami be-
sides they could walk faster than your
little oil tea kettle could pull them.
It Is speedy, reliable service the peo-
ple want in these days and an en-
gineer has got to make time no matter
what the weather is."
Thai was only a way (he railroad
men have of drawing Captain McGon-
igle out, for they all like him and de-
iighi in hearing him relate his experi-
ences. brief though they were, while
railroading in the early days before
there were any railroads built in the
west.
"Reliable service?” The captain said
Well, we weren’t
was a craze for building railroads in
the eastern and middle states. Every
town wanted railroad facilities' anil
people who had money were eager to
invest it in railroad enterprises. The
Double, as They afterward learned,
was that, there wasn't enough home
capital to build a]) the railroads de-
manded by Hm rapidly developing
country. That is how it came about
that foreign capital was pul into rail-
roads and the little dinky lines, as you
IcIIowb call them, hut by home com-
panies, became the nucleus Tif the ’
groat railway system* of today.,
"I was at Steubenville, on tin' Ohio
liver, in lk.>2, when a lot of fellows
who had some money concluded to
build a railroad from Steubenville
west across Ohio and Indiana to In-
dianapolis by way of Columbus. They
called it the Steubenville & Indiana
railroad. They built only fifty miles
ol Hie road when their money gave
out. The road ran from Steubenville
west to a cut in Licking county and
while it was being operated under tho
original company 1 worked first as
hrakeman and then as conductor at
$2ti a month. The fireman got $20,
but the engineer got a little more, $40,
1 think. We had two trains on the
road running in opposite directions.
\\ hen wa reached a meeting point the
first train to arrive would take the
silling ami wait for the other train
to pass. \\ e had lots of experiences
that would seem incredulous to the
railroader of these times. We used to
burn green wood because when it
burned at ali»it would make a hotter
fire and last longer; but we had lots
of trouble keeping that green wood
burning. No matter how careful we
were that fire would go out and then
we would have to tie up and cut up
lence rails to get up steam enough lo
go ahead."

The thrust had the effect of quieiing
the little group. Then the captain be-
gan relating his experiences while
