A series of articles on the BNR, then celebrating its (highly significant) 25th year, was published during 1911 in ''The Indian Railway Gazette''. The December 1911 issue carried biographical entries on the top 12 staff complete with photos. Microfilm of the Gazette can be consulted at the '''British Library's Newspaper Reading Room''' at Colindale (see below for link).
There are some reports, letters and notes on the railway's history covering 1890-1930 held at '''Hertfordshire Archives and Local Studies''', including copies of the ''Bengal-Nagpur Railway Magazine'' for July 1929, August 1929, November 1930 and December 1930.
