I believe it's intended to commemorate the original National Narrow Gauge Convention held in St. Louis in 1872 which launched the narrow gauge movement of the 1870s and 1880s.
Proceedings of the 1872 convention can be found at
Hathitrust: Proceedings of the National narrow-gauge railway convention, held at St. Louis, Mo., June 19, 1872.
