The Santa Fe Railroad Collection consists of materials dealing with
the administration and operation of the Gulf, Colorado, and Santa Fe Railroad
Company from 1897 to 1968. Much of the collection deals with the legal aspects
of the Company's operation including relationships with other railroads,
corporations, the states and the federal government. The collection also
contains information pertaining to company mergers, litigation, and laws as
well as information on subjects such as the depression, segregation, the New
Deal and World War II as they involved railroad management.
The types of material include company correspondence (which
constitutes the bulk of the collection), legal documents, legal briefs, company
and governmental reports, government documents and some correspondence from
private individuals. A few charts and blueprints are also included.

Houston Public Library.
While editing the EAD version of the finding aid, it became very clear
to the editor that different parts of the collection were processed by
different people, some of whom used different rules for processing the
material. While this was not a problem for most of the collection, the material
in boxes 231-313 proved to contain some difficulties.
The two main series in the collection, the Legal Files and the
Operational Files, consist of files that were numbered by Santa Fe Railroad
staff. Throughout most of the collection, processors placed material from one
file into one folder (unless a large amount of material required files to be
split into multiple folders). Thus, for example, Legal File #2297 was placed
into box 223, folder 5; Legal File #2298 was placed in box 223, folder 6; Legal
File #2299 was placed into box 223, folder 7; and so forth.
This was not the case for material contained in boxes 231-313. Here,
multiple files were often placed within a single folder. For example, material
from six different files (Legal Files #2829, #2830, #2831, #2832, #2833, and
#2834) were all placed into box 243, folder 2.
The editor decided that both for the sake of consistency and the
well-being of the material (the possibility of refiling items with material
pertaining to a different topic was deemed to be high), the files should be
placed into separate folders. The folders were not given new numeric numbers,
however. Instead, a combination of a numeric and alphabetic designation was
assigned to each folder. Thus, the above mentioned folder 2 from box 243 was
split into the following folders: File #2829 went to folder 2A, #2830 went to
folder 2B, #2831 to 2C, #2832 to 2D, #2833 to 2E, and #2834 to 2F. Staff
decided that such a numbering system would be make it less difficult for
researchers to find material, in the event they searched for items that had
been referenced differently in a published work.
