This series contains returns of rolling stock repairs for locomotive engines, passenger coaches and tenders. The locomotive engines were added to, re-boilered, or taken out of service (condemned). The returns record conversions and upgrades of passenger coaches or change their carrying capacity as well as their regular repair or final disposal. However for goods tenders only their condemnation is indicated. Each vehicle mentioned is identified by its code number.Custody HistoryFrom 1955 until 2000 the State Rail Authority of New South Wales maintained an ‘in house archives’ consisting of the archival records of the Authority, its predecessor agencies and the private railway companies taken over by the government. The date ranges of the records were from 1849 until 2000. When the decision was made to close the ‘State Rail Archives’ the parts of the collection that were required as State archives were transferred to the State Records Authority of NSW. Those record series were incorporated into the State Records series system of archives control and were re-numbered.This series was formerly part of the State Rail Archives collection where it was identified as series R23. It may have been viewed in the State Rail Archives as series R23 and could have been previously cited as such in notes by researchers at State Rail Archives or in publications or unpublished works.

保管历史
1955年至2000年间，新南威尔士州铁路局（State Rail Authority of New South Wales）建立了内部档案馆，馆藏涵盖该局、其前身机构以及政府接管的私营铁路公司的档案记录，档案时间跨度为1849年至2000年。在决定关闭“州铁路档案馆”后，符合州档案馆馆藏要求的部分档案被移交至新南威尔士州档案管理局（State Records Authority of NSW）。该批档案系列被纳入州档案管理体系，并重新编号。

本数据集原隶属于州铁路档案馆馆藏，当时的编号为系列R23。在州铁路档案馆馆藏中，该数据集可能曾以R23系列编号被查阅，且此前可能已被该馆研究人员在笔记、出版物或未刊作品中以此编号引用。
