There were over 1,500 such companies and to date the Rail Archive has sourced samples from over 800 of these companies. Early in 2001 the collection needed to be assessed for insurance purposes to identify a suitable premium. The premium cost was significant enough to warrant a more secure and sustainable future for the collection. In 2002 The Rail Archive was set up with the following objectives: secure an on-going future for the collection in a public institution reduce the insurance premium continue to add to the collection add a private collection of railway photographs from 1970‟s onwards provide a public access facility promote the collection ensure that the collection remains together in perpetuity where practical ensure that sufficient finances were in place to achieve to above objectives The archive is now retained by The Bodleian Library in Oxford to deliver the above objectives. This guide which gives details of paperwork in the collection and a list of railway companies from which material is wanted. The aim is to collect an item of printed paperwork from each UK railway company ever opened.

LODERS by Wilfred H. Brown, Bradpole, Bridport. LODERS, a very pretty place, How peaceful it all seems. Surrounded by the wooded Hills, With little lanes and many streams. This lovely Village away from the Town, Where many old-fashioned Houses are seen, Seems to add homeliness to those living there, And a life so simple and clean. The everyday life of these Loders folk, Has always been friendly and kind, And though many places change with the years, It has !:nt changed here you will find. For the people here seem to follow along, And in many homes we would see, The work that was done by their parents, now gone, Of Bridport's great net industry. Yes, the nets that they braid in this Village here, Have gone to many great lands, And Loders can feel that the works that they do, Are done by very skilled hands. So if we visit this little place here, In this. Village how welcomed we feel How pleasant to walk through those lovely lanes, Or to sit upon Eoarsbarrow Hill.
