Series notes:
This series consists of operational files covering derailments, collisions and other accidents involving trains in Tasmania. Originally these matters were dealt with as part of series P1994. About 1986 this separate series of files dealing specifically with incidents involving trains in Tasmania was begun. Each file covers a specific incident. File contents include: reports, correspondence, maps, graphs and in some cases photos of the site of the derailment, collision or accident.
These records are part of the holdings of the Tasmanian Archives
