Title: Records, 1884-1948.

The records cover the peak period of Vulcan's production from 1905 to 1930, with slight coverage before and after. Locomotive order books (1903-1948) give customer name, shipping date and cylinder and driver dimensions with construction notes and occasional sketches of cylinders and other details. Locomotive specification cards (1902-1920) give full specification, customer and shipping data. Both are arranged by locomotive builder's number. The drawings (1892-1942) depict a wide range of the company's products and their component parts and are arragned according to product type. An incomplete selection of trade catalogs is also included. Additional items may be found in the library's general trade catalog collection. Series V-VII are photographic prints and negatives which are serviced by the Pictorial Collections Department. About half are standard builder's photos of locomotives, but they also include shots of shop interiors, employees at work, and locomotives and equipment installed and in service, particularly at collieries in the anthracite fields. There are also 1,658 negatives of drawings and plans, chiefly of mining equipment. The collection contains many gaps where the original negatives are missing or have deteriorated beyond use. (Many were on nitrate film.) An index to purchasers of the products is available in the Pictorial Collection Dept.
