This three-box collection contains the papers of the UIC Providence Railroad Station and span the period of 1918 to 1919. These papers consist of freight tariff publications from the United States Railroad Administration, daily abstracts and balance sheets, way bills, and a memorandum for cash book. Box 1 contains the United States Railway Administration circulars which concern freight tariffs that are geographically specific and contain detailed charges for different types of freight, such as cement, livestock, and canned goods. Boxes 2-3 contain a variety of working papers from the station, including bills of landing, daily abstracts, daily balance sheets, way bills, and memorandum for cash book.

The papers that comprise this collection were found in an abandoned building in Logan and had received water damage prior to their donation to Utah State University. Researchers should be aware that the papers in this collection are fragile and at times difficult to read due to this damage.
