The county archive looks after more than 1,700 boxes of GWR material, including personnel and pension records. STEAM, the GWR museum in Swindon, has timetables, photographs, drawings, plans and bound volumes of the company magazine (you can browse images via steampicturelibrary.com). Staff records are also available via an extensive Ancestry collection: ancestry.co.uk/search/collections/1728.
