Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers (BLE) — The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers was founded in 1863 as the "Brotherhood of the Footboard" to represent the prestigious and relatively well compensated locomotive engineers. The organization was not part of the American Federation of Labor and was governed by conventions of elected delegates held every three years.The brotherhood was financially prosperous and initiated a network of labor banks based in Cleveland, Ohio to better marshal the assets of itself and its members. The BLE published a monthly magazine for its members, Locomotive Engineers' Journal.

The magazine is complete and in GOOD -VERY GOOD condition with some overall wear including a subscription crease down the middle. The back cover has a tear on the edge (see pictures).
