In this video we reveal how Southern Pacific’s “cab-forward” steam locomotive—mocked as dangerous and backward—ended up saving crews from deadly heat and carbon monoxide in Sierra Nevada tunnels. We break down the suffocation crisis on Donner Pass, the failed safety fixes, and the bold redesign that placed crews in clean air ahead of the boiler. This is the true story of an invention critics hated—until it worked.
