    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.

Making its debut alongside the 4-4-0 at the Centennial Exhibition celebrating the United States' 100th anniversary, the 2-6-0 carried 4 million of the visitors around the Exhibition site. Its impressive size and strength led the engine to be christened the "Mogul," and the 2-6-0 reigned over the narrow gauge rails of its day. Bachmann's Spectrum@ 2-6-0 Mogul is a 1 :20.3 large scale reproduction of the revered Baldwin locomotive. It features prototypical detailing and parts, including a working Stephenson valve gear with operating piston valves, Johnson bar, and linkage. Also included is a polarity switch that allows you to � choose the direction the 2-6-0 travels (either according to NMRA standards or large scale model railroad practice).

Referring to the methods of today’s technological assessment, the article is questioning a teleological interpretation of the last US passenger tratin steam locomotive as a failing innovation.
