In addition to providing assistance for research on railways and transportation, EJRCF also collects railway-related information.

Conserving Railway-related Documents and Materials

Historical records of social events have untold value for the future but they can be easily lost, damaged or mislaid so EJRCF is conserving and archiving as manny records as possible for handing on to future geerations.
