He is a pioneer n great .mgmeering work and his life , one of romance, of achievement an conquest of difficulties." Hood was first with the Southern Pa cine in 1867 when it was known as Central Pacific. He left Dartmouth CoV lege and came West to help solve th rail building question which v.0U!r link the East and West. His fl-jj work was to help lay out the Donw Lake roadbed. In a short time he b gan his advance from the bottom vA became assistant engineer to the con struction cniet, which post he h'4 when tee Central Pacific and Unlo Pacific met at Prmontorv Mountain Utah, in 1869, completing the fi-it transcontinental railroad. Later Horl worked on the Southern Pacific route west from New Orleans across Texa and Arizona to California. Hood became chief engineer in 15 just 18 years after he first joined the company. A year ago "the impossible railroad through Carriso Gorge on the San Diego & Arizona, between San Dieen and El Centro, which cuts 17 times through solid granite, was completed under his direction. Hood has built roads over 7,000 feet above sea levei and-more than 200 feet below the level of the sea: drawn nla tions for tracks through wnndfr. shed, in which enough lumber was used to build houses for 30,000 peopk He has drawn nlans fnr stppl strarvi stretching across desert sands ar! sageDrusn, and even across 21 milts 01 threat salt Lake. When Hood ininfd tl-10 fpntraT Pa Cific thev had hut 90 milps nf track. Today the same organization, which is the Southern Pacific, has 11,000 mi'M or tracks and there is not a portion of tht Antiro evetom Via Vias nnt tri- versed on foot, and part of it he hai bee nover several times. Since back in the 70 's he has been peacemaker in American railroad srineerinsr disnntes. flm nf his first ,le VelonmAnta in mnnntain railroad C01V grades, as a whole from the "summit down," -instead of building the tracks up the mountain. Another of his successful accom plishments is the Tehachipi loop, which runs around a mountain pea's and cuts across itself in a deep tun nel, which not only contributed to en gineering a hitherto unemployed grade making device, but has saved milliM' snlvefl t V q SieVii-r.il TM-nhlom with 'V w . . t . .
