Can anyone tell me if either Candadisn National Railway or Candadisn Pacific Railway have achival records for employees around 1930's.

Here is the website for the CPR archives - it says employee records are not part of the archives, and not available for research.

Here is another railways archives page that may be interesting

My Dad was a Section Foreman for the CNR from 1926-1949. I have his seniority booklet from those years....I could look up a surname/year for you.

Not sure if this is what you are looking for or not

Hi, What information are you searching for?
A family member worked for CPR from 1920 - 1965.
Another from the early 1940's to the 1960's
when I enquired with CPR - I was advised that there were no records of employees held. Whether that was accurate information ? or just difficult to research. So Many Employees over all the years - some long time, some casual - brothers and cousins worked during summer break from school.
perhaps if you are searching for a particular person - and want information other than CPR/ CNR employment information
You might want to post the name/s to the message - board - there may be persons who can help - perhaps family connected - or even persons who may have worked with the person/s of interest.

Cheers, Stella

Great idea, thanks I will do just that!

His name was Charles Henry Gardner. Not sure what years he worked where. He worked all over Ontario from what I can remember. He had to retire early due to an accident. (not job related) He was pensioned off around..1930-40 he would have been roughly 40-45 yrs.

Hi Again, What information are you searching for re Charles Henry GARDNER?
