WOW. What great photos. I am sure this will generate a lot of Yahoo messages.
Who is John Barriger? Is/was he a photographer that shot only CB&Q or other 
RR's as well?
Too bad there are no descriptions to identify location, date, etc.
I sure would like to get more info on these photos.

Does anyone know if you can buy 8" x 10" prints from the Barriger Library 
direct?

List: The Barriger Library has now scanned 409 photos of the CB&Q 
on Flickr. Prior lists only showed a small number, this may be the complete set 
now. http://flic.kr/s/aHsjRv9kDa For us 
Illinois lads the following may be of special interest. In no particular order: 
#74 shows the west end of Clyde on center track going west. Moline coal is on 
the right at La Vergne. It also looks like they are re-ballasting the main 
line. #77 shows a shoo-fly around bridge construction at "I 
THINK", west of Naperville at the Du Page river. #150 shows vertical 
"telltails" just before a steel bridge. I've never seen that before. #424 shows 
the Oregon Station in like new condition. #362 shows a very busy Galesburg 
station and many, many more!.  


 You can save the photos to a picture file by left clicking a photo. 
Then left click to bring up a size box. Click large. Then right click to save 
the photo in your picture file. These photos are for 
home use/study ONLY. 


Many of the photos will have to be flipped horizontally and/or 
vertically with an image editor because they were scanned wrong. You 
most likely will also have the adjust the contrast and shadows to see the 
details.


For those of you that don't have an image editor, the following link 
to a free home use editor and viewer and is excellent.

These photos are guaranteed to keep old guys busy...Regards..Jerry Albin, Homer
