Jeme Tien Yow ( 1861-1919 )
Jeme was born in Guangzhou,Guangdong province. In 1872, twelve-years-old Jeme was sent to the United States for education. After studying at a primary school in New Haven, he then entered a secondary school there, and in 1878, Jeme was admitted to Yale University. Jeme's major was Civil Engineering, with an emphasis in railroad construction. Jeme received his bachelor's degree in 1881, and then he was recalled back by the Imperial Qing government.
Then Jeme was sent to the newly formed Imperial Navy in Fuchow, Fujian Province. A few years later, he finally found his way to become a railroad engineer.
In 1905, the Imperial Qing government decided to build a railroad that would link the capital of Peking to the important trade city of Kalgan to the north. This railway would be of strategic importance to the Imperial government. A decision was therefore made that the railway would be built without foreign assistance. Capital would come from the government, and no foreign engineers were to be hired. Jeme was appointed as Chief Engineer of the railway. At the beginning, some people were skeptical that the Qing government would be able to construct the railroad in the rugged mountains North of Peking all by itself. But Jeme showed he was an able engineer and completed the work two years ahead of schedule and under budget. He designed a zig zag upwards railway by switching back the line near the Qinglongqiao railway station to overcome the steep gradient.
Jeme was also responsible for setting many railroad standards that are still in force in China today. He was also the founding member of the China Institute of Engineers. Jeme was awarded an honorary doctorate degree by the University of Hong Kong in 1916. For his contributions to railroad engineering in China, Jeme was often called the Father of China's Railroad. Jeme died in Hankou in 1919 at the age of 58. He was buried at the Qinglongqiao railway station. A museum was also established nearby to commmerorate the works of Jeme Tien.
