Drawings

This collection consists of close to 165 000 technical drawings. These are mainly original drawings on linen but also include some blueprints. The majority of the railway section of the collection are drawings from H. K. Porter Co. Inc. and CN and CP Rail. In addition, however, there are a number of smaller collections of drawings such as the one from the Waterous Engine Works Co. Ltd, which mostly features early fire fighting equipment. There is also a large aviation component to the drawing collection.
