*Tracking Railway Archives Project - "TRAP"*

September 2002 Update All the archive catalogues that the TRAP Consortium passed to the Public Record Office as part of the *Access to Archives* (A2A) initiative are now on-line in the A2A database, accessible through ‘www.pro.gov.uk’. The subsequent phases of TRAP have been slower to get moving than the Consortium planned. There has been a delay waiting to co-ordinate details of the TRAP web site, space for which has been offered by the National Register of Archives, part of the Historical Manuscripts Commission.

Previous TRAP updates: *June 2002, September 2001*.
RAILTRAP There is an e-mail distribution list called RAILTRAP which goes to anyone interested in keeping up to date with the project. To subscribe, merely send a blank e-mail to: *RAILTRAP-subscribe@yahoogroups.com* A lot of work is going on behind the scenes with TRAP-1, so the RAILTRAP list does not yet carry a lot of traffic but it does provide an easy way of updating interested parties with any news. To contact TRAP by e-mail, or to volunteer to help in any way, send your message to: *wrrctrap@wrrc.org.uk*
Web Sites The Public Record Office is at *www.pro.gov.uk* Historical Manuscripts Commission is at *www.hmc.gov.uk* and carries the National Register of Archives (NRA) database. Search on Business, then Railways and follow the link to your chosen company.
