T IS not difficult to trace the inception and progress of locomotive engineering in the United States. Although other lines of rails had previously been laid for special puvposes, the Baltimore and Ohio and the South Carolina railroadeoth begun in lBZS-wet'e the first American railways constructed to carry passengers and freight. Upon the former was run the first American built locomotive, that of Peter Cooper, the mPom ThumIW. constructed in 1829, a mere working model not intended for permanent service but only to demonstrate the practicability of oper- ating the line by locomotive power. It did this success- fully and led to the completion of the road, which otherwise might have been abandoned The first passenger couches consisted of open trucks with neither root 1101' seats; but the discomfort of these led to the evolution of covered coaches, which were pro- vided for filst and second class passengers only. The third class coach was still roofless but was fitted with benches. The luxurious coaches of today with facilities for dining, sleeping, and, in some cases, bathing, are material proofs of the great progress made in this branch of transportation. In 1830 there were but: twenty-tlu-ee miles of railroad in operation in the United States. In 1831 this had been increased to ninety-fivc and in 1832 to two hundred and twenty-niuc. The latest available statistics of mileage show that there are today same two hundred and fifty-two thousand miles of railway in operation.
