Jon Bartlett Harry "Haywire Mac" McClintock as a writer (11) Haywire Mac McClintock 17 Dec 23

I'm writing a piece about Haywire Mac. He was not only a songmaker ("Big Rock Candy Mountain" among others) but he was also a writer, and a particularly good one. He was a railroad switchman for many years, and wrote a number of stories, true or otherwise. I've managed to find five of them, in a magazine called RAILROAD MAGAZINE.

In total I've identified 22 stories of his in RAILROAD MAGAZINE, but can't find a library or archive which has a full set. Are there any mudcat railroad buffs out there who can help me?
