The Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen was comprised primarily of railroad workers other than engineers and firemen. This set of records cover the years 1917-1923. The bulk of the collection consists of correspondence files, many of which pertain to grievance brought by the union against management. Of interest in these files are letters from men who have joined the army during World War I. These letters concern questions of keeping their union status intact.
