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 R334. It may have been viewed in the State Rail Archives as series R334 and could have been previously cited as such in notes by researchers at State Rail Archives or in publications or unpublished works.本档案系列为新南威尔士州铁路管理局（State Rail Authority）[董事会]所开展巡检活动的记录编制索引。本系列共包含两卷：其一为新南威尔士州乡村区域巡检记录索引，其二为悉尼都市区巡检记录索引。每卷内容均按地点划分为字母序章节，收录信息包括车站/地点名称、巡检日期、归档文件编号或巡检编号。 本系列索引覆盖新南威尔士州铁路管理局[董事会]编制的、隶属于"Reports of Management Inspection Tours"（编号NRS 15274）系列的档案报告，研究人员可通过特定车站或地点的巡检日期检索到对应报告。 保管沿革：1955年至2000年间，新南威尔士州铁路管理局设有内部档案馆，馆藏涵盖该局、其前身机构及政府接管的私营铁路公司的档案文件，档案时间跨度为1849年至2000年。在关停州铁路档案馆（State Rail Archives）后，符合州档案馆馆藏要求的部分藏品被移交至新南威尔士州档案管理局（State Records Authority of NSW），并纳入州档案管理体系进行重新编号。 本系列原隶属于州铁路档案馆馆藏，当时编号为R334档案系列。研究人员在州铁路档案馆开展研究时，或曾以R334系列编号查阅本系列档案，并可能在其研究笔记、已出版或未出版作品中以此编号引用本系列档案。
