Description
California State Railroad Museum Corporate Miscellany Collection is an assembled collection of miscellaneous material pertaining
to various railroads and railroad-related companies. The collection contains documents, publications, and ephemera that are
arranged in alphabetical order by subjects.
Background
The California State Railroad Museum Corporate Miscellany Collection is a collection of miscellaneous material assembled by
the Califonia State Railroad Museum Library & Archives' staff since 1981. The purpose for the collection is to gather loose
items relevant to specific corporations, and to have them accessible for researchers interested in a particular railroad.
It may serve as a supplementary collection of research material in association with a specific corporate collection found
in the California State Railroad Museum Library & Archives. In addition, it may be the only subject file(s) relevant to a
railroad whose official records are not in the repository.
