NRS-4508 | Engineering drawings, plans, blueprints and diagrams of tramcars, trolley buses, rolling stock, tramway equipment and workshops

The series consists largely of engineering drawings which are most detailed drawings of tramcar construction and equipment, and, to a lesser extent, trolley buses. In addition, there are plans of tramtrack layout and overhead fixtures; details of associated vehicles such as breakdown trucks, water sprinklers etc.; and diagrams of workshop equipment and layout. These tramway records were transferred from the Randwick Tramway Workshops. They were assigned numbers by the department, and these have been noted on the Shelf List in the column marked Drawing No. The numbers are arranged in the following order of series: A, B, C, AR, BR, CR, BT, CT, BO, F, K, KT, RA, SK, SKA, SKB, SKC, T, P, W, X, Y, Z, drawings from The English Electric Co Ltd, drawings from Thomas Ash and Co Ltd, drawings from R.A. Dyson & Co Ltd, and miscellaneous numbers. A number of the plans had attachments which have mostly been removed and placed at SR Plan Nos. 62514-62520c. A full listing of these plans is available. A card index is available in the Western Sydney reading room. (SR Plan Nos. 61728-62504, X1380-83, SR Plan Nos. 62514-62520c). 794 plans.

本系列藏品以工程图纸为核心组成部分，其中占比最高的是有轨电车（tramcar）构造与设备的详细设计图纸，其次为无轨电车（trolley bus）相关图纸。此外，藏品还涵盖有轨电车轨道布局与架空线路设施的设计图、配套车辆（如救援拖车、洒水车等）的细节图纸，以及车间设备与布局示意图。
这批有轨电车档案均由兰德威克有轨电车修理厂（Randwick Tramway Workshops）移交而来。相关部门为其分配了专属编号，这些编号已记录在《架位清单》（Shelf List）的“Drawing No.”栏中。编号按以下系列顺序编排：A、B、C、AR、BR、CR、BT、CT、BO、F、K、KT、RA、SK、SKA、SKB、SKC、T、P、W、X、Y、Z系列图纸，英国电气有限公司（The English Electric Co Ltd）图纸、托马斯·阿什公司（Thomas Ash and Co Ltd）图纸、R·A·戴森公司（R.A. Dyson & Co Ltd）图纸，以及杂项编号。
部分图纸原带有附件，其中绝大多数已被取下并归入SR Plan Nos. 62514-62520c的序列中。该批图纸的完整名录可对外查阅，西悉尼阅览室备有该批图纸的卡片式索引（对应SR Plan Nos. 61728-62504、X1380-83及62514-62520c）。本系列共计794份图纸。
