Fonds Staatsarchiv Hamburg, 374-10 - Senate Commission for Railway Affairs

Laufmeter: 8.5

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.
