Online Transport Archive (OTA) was established as a company
limited by guarantee in 2000 to administer a growing
collection of film and photographic material relating to all
forms of transport. It is the aim of the Archive
that the collections will be accessible to publishers and to
bona fide researchers, and used in such a way that they will
support fundraising activities for transport preservation
projects.
Originally
known as Online Video Archives Limited, its name was changed
in December 2002 as part of the process towards establishing
it as a charity. Charitable status was achieved in
January 2004.
OTA
already administers a number of historically important film
and photograph collections, and is assuming custodianship for
more. These are in the process of being sorted and
catalogued. In time, a searchable database will be
provided to allow researchers and publishers to be aware of
the material which is available. The sample images
shown on this page are from the collections of Allan Clayton,
R L Wilson and Jack Parkinson.
Pending the
development of a more extensive website, please contact
the secretary
regarding any enquiries.
