Stratford Drawings and Microfilm Lists.Xlsx
Stratford Photo Tracings and Liquid Fuel Photo Tracings Drawings Lists Description: There are approximately 16000 engineering drawings covering locomotives, carriages and wagons, components, road vehicles and a miscellaneous variety of objects. There is an associated and quite unique card index system related to the drawings and a set of registers. System of arrangement: The engineering drawings have been sorted and listed in separate series based on the apparent practice of the drawing office at Stratford. The main series of the drawings can be categorised into four main types: 1. Photo tracings on wax linen. These acted as a master from which copies could be made for other purposes. 2. Office copies. These were prints on paper, with the earliest using a cyanotype photo process for copying, sometime additionally coloured, and kept in the drawing office. 3. Shop copies. These were on a variety of materials tacked onto wooden rods and used in the workshops. They have survived in this condition and are inevitably uniformly dirty and frequently in poor condition. 4. Bench-hole copies. These were separate from the main series, as only about 20% originated at Stratford. Most came from external sources. Essentially they formed a technical reference library of ideas and suggestions. They were folded and stored flat in a pigeonhole system. In total they comprise approximately 16000 drawings. There is duplication between the various series but the extent of this has not yet been appraised. The main series of drawings runs potentially from 1 to 42459, plus ‘attachments’ and ‘parts’ drawings. Most of these drawings have not survived into the present, as a result of periodic culls of material. -
STRATFORD WORKS PHOTOGRAPHIC COLLECTION-SX SERIES – DRAFT LIST Introduction
STRATFORD WORKS PHOTOGRAPHS – SX COLLECTION-1 SX No Title and Description Date STRATFORD WORKS PHOTOGRAPHIC COLLECTION-SX SERIES – DRAFT LIST Introduction These photographs were taken by staff in the Locomotive, Carriage & Wagon Department Drawing Office at Stratford Works at various dates between about 1900 and 1953. When the Works closed at the end of 1963 the negatives, principally on glass plates, were sent to Doncaster. In the late 1960's they were transferred to the British Transport Museum, Clapham, becoming part of the National Collection and with the establishment of the National Railway Museum they were finally moved to York. Subject Matter The majority of the images are of subjects in and around Stratford Works and Temple Mills Wagon Works but some are of other places on the GER system. Most relate to matters which were the responsibility of the Locomotive Department. The range of subjects includes locomotives, carriages, wagons, road vehicles, workshop machinery and plant and war damage. The Register and Negative Numbering The hand written photographic register exists at the NRM but has several limitations; the descriptions are very terse and many lack a date. The register lists negatives SX101 to SX2638; SX refers to Stratford Works and is a convention adopted by the LNER. The first 1211 negatives are not listed in date order and an examination of the dates which are recorded for numerical groups suggests that the register was prepared during 1930. SX 101 to 221 1928, 27 and 29 SX 222 to 238 1920 to 1924 SX 241 to 306 all GER period? SX 398 to 404 1929 SX 405 to 416 1902 to 1920 SX 524 to 688 1930 SX 689 to 814 mostly GER period SX 815 to 1210 mostly GER period but some in 1926 SX 1211 onwards October 1930 onwards in chronological order. -
