  • 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.

  • From the President
    Volume 2 Issue 10 October, 2019 From the President Sometimes you just have to step back and laugh about the simple things. It’s always easy to get caught up in the issues of the day. In our industry it’s easy to worry about the future of long distance trains, having dinner in the diner, loss of charter trains or issues on your tourist operation. But sometimes, you just have to take a break from reality. And sometimes, even reality is a little strange. Recently I was driving south of Ft. Wayne, Indiana when a friend of mine called me. His family owns a small short line that’s northeast of Indianapolis and he was having a problem with the only locomotive on the west end of the railroad. By coincidence, I would be dropping my wife off just two blocks west of his locomotive issue. I told him I would be there shortly. When I arrived, I found the locomotive showing a continuous wheel slip even though the wheels weren’t turning let alone slipping. He couldn’t move the locomotive under its own power. After checking a few items, I pulled off the cover on one of the power contactors and noticed heavy black soot. Looking a little closer, I could see an oblong circle in the center of the contactor tip. After I removed the oblong circle I could see it was a perfectly flat stink bug. I cleaned up the contactor tips with a Scotch-Brite pad to find no damage to the contactor tips.
