Valuation Engineer's records, 1882-1991.

Architectural drawings (1882-1919), station plat maps (1917), track profile drawings (1917), mechanical valuation records, annual reports to the ICC Bureau of Valuation (1939-1947) and the Minnesota Railroad and Warehouse Commission (1954-1962), and miscellaneous valuation reports and worksheets produced or maintained by the NP administrative unit responsible for tracking and reporting on the monetary value (cost of reproduction) of the NP's physical properties and those of its subsidiaries. The valuation reports, worksheets, and accounting records give very detailed information on the monetary value of every component of NP operating property--structural and mechanical. The maps and blueprint architectural drawings depict line, right-of-way, and structures as they existed around 1920. Track profiles show the grade of, and related engineering information about, every mile of track within the system. Locomotive and rolling stock property cards itemize the purchase, maintenance, and repair charges accruing to each piece of NP equipment.
