Administrative history: Preliminary remark A former Senate deputation for postal, railway and telegraph services was replaced in 1867 by the Railway Commissariat for railway matters in connection with the reorganization of the distribution of tasks required by the constitution of the North German Confederation. This was replaced by the Organic Law of 1896 by the Senate Commission for Railway Matters. Technical matters were also the responsibility of a department of building deputation (Order 321-7; Ing. Dept. IV c of Section 1, Dept. for Railways of Section 1, Ing. Dept. for Transportation and Railways, Ing. Dept. for Transportation, finally Dept. for Civil Engineering). Further railway matters were dealt with by the Deputation für Handel, Schiffahrt und Gewerbe (see there Best. 371-8 Abt.XVIII as well as the police authority and 374-2 Hamburgisches Post- und Telegrafenwesen). From 1906 to 1921, there was a special Senate Commission for Urban and Suburban Railways (374-12), whose tasks and files were transferred back to the Senate Commission for Railway Matters in 1921, which in part continued to use the registry. In 1928, the Senate Commission was dissolved. It was replaced by the Department for Railway Matters in the Deputation for Trade, Shipping and Trade, later combined with Motor and Road Transport to form a Transport Department. The registry of the Senate Commission was continued at the Deputation for Trade, Shipping and Industry until the 1930s. Deliveries were made by them on 27.4. and 27.5.1929 (business file II 1087/29) and on 21.3.1940 (business file H 3345/40). The files were newly prepared by Mr. Köhlert in 1955/56 according to the old scheme of the Senate Commission, which apparently was created soon after its establishment, and subsequently recorded. The few personnel files handed over on 10.5.1928 could be destroyed. The old delivery lists lie under II 1087/29. 1.6.1956 Inventory description: The railway commission responsible for railway matters since 1867 in connection with the reorganization caused by the constitution of the North German Federation was replaced in 1896 by the senate commission for railway matters. Technical matters were also dealt with by a department of building deputation; the deputation for trade, shipping and industry and the police authority also dealt with railways. From 1906 to 1921, there was a special Senate Commission for Urban and Suburban Railways (see 374-12), whose tasks and files were transferred to the Senate Commission for Railway Matters in 1921. In 1928, the Senate Commission was dissolved. It was replaced by the Department of Railway Affairs in the Deputation for Trade, Shipping and Industry. The registry of the Senate Commission was continued at the Deputation for Trade, Shipping and Commerce until the 1930s and then delivered to the State Archives. The files were left in the registry context and form the order, which is divided into three parts: General railway matters, Hamburg railway matters as well as the creation of a central station and a freight bypass.

History of the Inventor: The Engineer and Pioneer Corps included the Pioneer Battalions, each made up of four companies. They had to perform certain technical tasks, particularly in the construction of river crossings, blasting operations and field reinforcement. In the 1st World War, the mine launcher, gas combat, heavy current and flame launcher formations were set up within this framework. Inventory description: The Engineering and Pioneer Corps included the Pioneer Battalions, each consisting of four companies. They had to perform certain technical tasks, particularly in the construction of river crossings, blasting operations and field reinforcements. While the pioneers originally formed the mother weapon of the railway, intelligence, motor vehicle, airship and air force troops, in the First World War the mine-throwing, gas-fighting, high-voltage and flame-throwing formations were added to the pioneer troops. Characterisation of content: The present tradition consists primarily of war diaries (often only parts or copies) that have been preserved by chance, individual battle reports, troop orders, location maps or sketches. State of development: Findbuch Vorarchivische Ordnung: The files of the Prussian Corps of Engineers and Pioneers were largely destroyed in the fire at the Potsdam Army Archives in 1945. Only a few fragments of files have been handed down and archived. In 1994, some fragments of files from the military archives of the former GDR were added to the remaining files kept in the Freiburg Military Archives. The preserved files of the former Bavarian, Württemberg, Saxon and Baden troops can be found in the responsible main state archives in Munich, Stuttgart and Dresden as well as in the General State Archives in Karlsruhe.
