MISCELLANEOUS PROVENANCE Gift of Dr. Theodore Kornweibel, Jr. (387-2089), 2010 HISTORICAL INFORMATION Dr. Theodore Kornwiebel, Jr. was born on November 15, 1942. His interest in railroading began as a child when he read every railroad book in the library. He became involved in the civil rights movement in the 1960s. He says that "what really sealed my passion for African-American history was my first teaching job, which was at a still-segregated, all black state college in Texas, Prairie View A&M College (The African-American Railroad Experience, KPBS.org, p. 7 of 19) While studying for his Ph.D. in African American Studies at Yale in the late 1960s, Dr. Kornweibel volunteered as a gandy dancer (track maintenance worker) on the Valley Railroad (an abandoned New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad line) tourist train service in eastern Connecticut. After he received his degree from Yale, Dr. Kornweibel took a job at Lafayette College in Easton, Pennsylvania teaching black studies. He became a volunteer track worker on the New Hope & Ivyland Railroad tourist line near Philadelphia. In 1977, he moved to California to teach African American Studies at San Diego State University and started volunteering at the Pacific Southwest Railway Museum in Campo, which he continues to do after 30 years. In 1993, when the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania asked him to recommend an authority on African American railroad history to give a presentation. Dr. Kornweibel offered to prepare a lecture and slide presentation "Box Cars On My Mind: The African American Railroad Heritage," which he brought to other railroad museums, including the California State Railroad Museum in 1994. He began in-depth research into the subject during a sabbatical taken in 1999-2000, which culminated in his book RAILROADS IN THE AFRICAN AMERICAN EXPERIENCE: A PHOTOGRAPHIC JOURNEY, (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2009.)

  • B-1 John W Barriger III Papers Finalwpref.Rtf
    A Guide to the John W. Barriger III Papers in the John W. Barriger III National Railroad Library A Special Collection of the St. Louis Mercantile Library at the University of Missouri St. Louis This project was made possible by a generous grant From the National Historical Publications and Record Commission an agency of the National Archives and Records Administration and by the support of the St. Louis Mercantile Library at the University of Missouri St. Louis © 1997 The St. Louis Mercantile Library Association i Preface and Acknowledgements This finding aid represents the fruition of years of effort in arranging and describing the papers of John W. Barriger III, one of this century’s most distinguished railroad executives. It will serve the needs of scholars for many years to come, guiding them through an extraordinary body of papers documenting the world of railroading in the first two-thirds of this century across all of North America. In every endeavor, there are individuals for whom the scope of their involvement and the depth of their participation makes them a unique participant in events of historical importance. Such was the case with John Walker Barriger III (1899-1976), whose many significant roles in the American railroad industry over almost a half century from the 1920s into the 1970s not only made him one of this century’s most important railroad executives, but which also permitted him to participate in and witness at close hand the enormous changes which took place in railroading over the course of his career. For many men, simply to participate in the decisions and events such as were part of John Barriger’s life would have been enough.

  • T He History of BNSF: a Legacy for the 21St Century
    HISTORY and The History of BNSF: A Legacy for the 21st Century LEGACY Th e h i s Tory of BNsF A legacy for the 21st century Few companies can claim that they’ve been around for a century, much less 160-plus years. And not many have had the impact on the growth of a nation CONTENTS that BNSF Railway and its predecessors had. Celebrating Our Heritage, Shaping Our Future 2 Celebrating our heritage and building on our success is one of BNSF’s shared values. We are confident in our future because of the tremendous challenges Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad: 1849-1970 8 we’ve overcome and the achievements we’ve made over the years. The 390 St. Louis-San Francisco Railway: 1849-1980 14 railroads that today comprise BNSF have established a great legacy for our Great Northern Railway: 1857-1970 18 company, which became part of the Berkshire Hathaway family in 2010. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway: 1859-1995 24 While many different railroads combined to form BNSF, the people who Northern Pacific Railway: 1864-1970 30 worked at those railroads shared many traits. We were — and continue to Fort Worth & Denver / Colorado and be — a unique breed, blending visionary thinking with the pragmatism of Southern: 1873-1970 & 1881-1970 36 results-oriented business leaders. Spokane, Portland and Seattle Railway: 1905-1970 40 Aligned with our ideals of the past, our Vision today is to realize the tremendous potential of BNSF Railway by providing transportation Genealogy of BNSF Railway Company 45 services that consistently meet our customers’ expectations.
