 Series

Scope and Contents

This series is comprised of information relating to Minneapolis and St. Louis Railway's [M&St.L] motive power. It includes both blank and completed forms for both the Carriers' Conference Committee and the Association of Western Railways. These spread sheets contain information on the types of motive power used by the M&St.L, the repairs made on the engines, the types of rolling stock used, and a rosters of both engines and rolling stock. These statistics are all for the month of December 1948. There are also spreadsheets documenting the number of trips made by different divisions of the M&St.L in August 1930. There are also reports on accidents.

Of interest are the two blank questionnaires designed to test aspiring firemen and engineers on their knowledge of different types of motive power.
