The National Archives (www.nationalarchives.gov.uk) in England has catalogued Board of Trade Sub-Inspector’s Accident Reports for railway accidents from 1900-1910.A blog post by Chris Heather, one of the participants in the cataloguing effort, is available at http://blog.nationalarchives.gov.uk/blog/railway-accident-reports-unseen-victims/ and provides a useful case study on what might be found within such a report.
