Text Appearing Before Image:
s that have survived is thePioneer (figure 46), the first to have steamed out of Chicago,this having occurred on October 25, 1848, at the opening ofthe Galena and Chicago Union Rail Road. Built early in1836, the Pioneer was the 37th constructed by Matthias W.Baldwin and is the oldest Baldwin locomotive now inexistence. It was originally sold to the Utica and Schenectady RailRoad, in New Yorks Mohawk Valley, and was their loco-motive No. 7. Later it was sold to the Michigan Central Rail-road, by whom it was reportedly renamed the Alert, a namethat is open to question. From the latter road the Galenaand Chicago Union obtained it in 1848. In order to get the locomotive to Chicago, it had to beshipped by boat across Lake Michigan from Michigan City,Ind., and hauled by teams to the tracks. The little Baldwinlocomotive at this time was given the name Pioneer. Its newowner, the Galena and Chicago Union, later, in 1864, wasmerged into the then 5-year-old Chicago and North West-ern Railway Co.
