GN_AFE_List

 

This is an index to the "Authorization For Expenditures" files which were project files for all purchases, construction or removal of facilities or equipment from GN or NP property. They may contain correspondence, invoices, blueprints and other project information, and often contain insight into events or changes in a specific area at a point in time. Included also are a limited number of RPC (Record of Property Change) entries, which were made by the railroad for tax accounting purposes. These are denoted by 'X' in the RPC column, and a sample RPC can viewed under GN_Misc. AFE/RPC file contents are not available digitally, so this index provides a guide to researchers planning to visit the physical archives at Jackson Street Roundhouse in St. Paul (JSRH).  Each of the nearly 100,000 entries was entered by hand, so you will note some duplicates and misspellings.  CLICK on column headings like "Location" to filter or sort for specific items. More GN AFEs are listed under GN_AFE_Mattson and SP&S-JacksonSt.
