William Crooks, named after the Superintendent of the Minnesota and Pacific RR ^[1] was the first locomotive to operate in the U.S. state of Minnesota. Constructed in 1861 for the Minnesota and Pacific Railroad as their number 1,^[2] it first provided service a year later in 1862 for the St. Paul and Pacific Railroad.^[2] The St.P&P passed to the Saint Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba Railway in June 1879,^[3] and the St.PM&M passed to the Great Northern Railway in February 1890.^[4] James J. Hill had the locomotive pull his personal train. It is reported that he was responsible for saving it from the scrap heap when engines of its vintage were being replaced by faster and more powerful vehicles. The classic 4-4-0 is one of the only locomotives from the age of the American Civil War to survive to the present day.
In 1924, the locomotive went on an exhibition tour from Chicago to Seattle.^[5]William Crooks was displayed at the 1939 New York World's Fair and again at the Chicago Railroad Fair in 1948 where it was operated as part of the "Wheels A-Rolling" pageant. Its cylinders, rods and bearings were all rebuilt at the Great Northern's Dale Street Shops in St. Paul, MN in 1947-48 by machinist George A. Halvorsen as his last job before retirement. It was displayed at the Saint Paul Union Depot from June 1954,^[2] before being donated to the Minnesota Historical Society in June 1962.^[2] It currently resides at the Lake Superior Railroad Museum in Duluth, Minnesota.
