After obtaining a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from Virginia Tech in 1942, Holden joined the U. S. Army and served with the Coast Artillery Corps and Corps of Engineers during World War II. Following the war, Holden worked briefly at the Glenn L. Martin Company--specializing in design of aircaft controls, heating and ventilation, and electronic equipment--before joining ACF Industries in 1947. As chief project engineer for railroad tank cars, Holden designed and developed new containers and manufacturing methods. His curriculum vita during this time period lists three patents held in his name. In 1973, Holden became a technical service engineer for the Bureau of Explosives (later Hazardous Materials Systems) within the Association of American Railroads (AAR). At the AAR, Holden responded to questions from manufacturers,  shippers, and railroad inspectors regarding tank car problems; assisted in the preparation of technical manuals; and participated in responses to--and clean-up of--railroad tank car accidents. He participated in technical meetings of the Chlorine Institute, the National LP Gas Association, and the AAR's Tank Car Committee and was involved in the establishment of the Transportation Test Center's Tank Car Safety School. He also presented technical papers and delivered addresses on the transportation of hazardous materials and emergency response, and he was sometimes called upon as an expert witness in court actions. He married Jane Elizabeth Hockenberry (1924-2015); the couple had one daughter. Roy Jay Holden Jr. died in Washington, D. C. on December 11, 1989.","The guide to the Roy Jay Holden, Jr. Papers by Special Collections and University Archives, Virginia Tech, is licensed under a CC0 ( https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/ ).","Processing of the Roy Jay Holden Jr. Papers commenced in December 2025, and was completed in March 2026.","VT Special Collections and University Archives also maintains the papers of Holden's father, the  Roy Jay Holden Papers, Ms1982-014  and Holden's sister, the  Virginia Hummel Papers, Ms1998-014 .","This collection contains the papers of Roy Jay Holden Jr. (1921-1989), a Virginia Tech graduate (BS mechanical engineering, 1942), an expert on railroad tank car design and the handling and transportation of hazardous materials employed by ACF Industries and the American Association of Railroads (AAR). The collection contains such materials as correspondence, reports, drawings and specifications, and printed materials, all related to tank car construction and hazardous materials. Included are applications from various shipping car manufacturers for approval and certification from the AAR; reports on peformance of various tank cars and on mishaps involving tank cars; papers and journal extracts on hazardous materials; and promotional materials from various manufacturers and shippers. Also included are correspondence and meeting minutes of the AAR's Tank Car Committee, files relating to hazardous materials training and government regulation of shipping and hazardous materials. Of Holden's personal papers, the collection holds only a few files devoted to his search for employment in the early 1970s, some personal ephemera, photographs, and a book in which he recorded World Series baseball statistics.","The following books were cataloged for VT Special Collections and University Archives's Rare Book Collection:\n Report to the Association of American Railroads: A Review of Cost-Benefit Methodology Employed by the Association of American Railroads and Railways Progress Institute Railroad Tank Car Safety Research and Test Project Compared with a Related Analysis by Calspan Corporation , June 1974.

This series contains papers arising from Jeffreys' academic and extracurricular activities while a student at Virginia Tech. Included is a an account--in diary form, but apparently written at the end of the academic year--chronicling Jeffreys' experiences as a freshman cadet. The series also includes instructions for the conduct of cadet parades and various pieces of memorabilia, including dance cards, invitations, menus, programs, class schedules, and other ephemera. Jeffreys' coursework is represented in drafting assignments, class notes, and graded papers. ","Series II. Alumnus Papers, 1933-1985. The materials in this series reflect Jeffreys' active, ongoing interest in his alma mater. The series includes correspondence  with officers of the alumni assocation and various university officials. Also included is correspondence between the school and Jeffreys company, Jeeco, regarding purchases as well as efforts to place recent Virginia Tech graduates in Jeeco company positions. The series includes files devoted to campus-related organizations to which Jeffreys belonged, including Alpha Pi Mu, Pi Kappa Alpha, and the Committee of 100. Much of the material relates to Jeffreys' support of the school, both as a financial donor and as a booster. Thus, the papers contain reports on alumni fundraising efforts, on Jeffreys' many visits to campus, his ongoing development work with the Engineering Department, and his service in representing the university in presidential inaugurations at Guilford College and Salem Academy and College. A few files at the end of the series relate more personally to Jeffreys and include  printed materials and correspondence about his interest in the Eli Whitney musket;  copies of Virginia Tech printed materials in which he is mentioned; and a few pieces of personal correspondence, much of which is from Lorana T. Moomaw and James G. Maley.","Sidney Bryan Jeffreys, a 1931 graduate of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) and the founder of Jeffreys Engineering and Equipment Company (Jeeco), was born in Chase City, Virginia in 1909. After graduating from the Blackstone Military Academy (Nottoway County, Virginia), Jeffreys attended Virginia Polytechnic Instittue. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in industrial engineering in 1931, then obtained a master's degree in business and engineering administration from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology the following year. In the meantime, he had married Angie Eliza Turner in 1931, and the couple would have two children. (Following Angie Jeffreys' 1972 death, he would marry Gwendolyn Goodson Powell.)","Jeffreys began his career at the Virginia State Chamber of Commerce in 1933, working with the membership and serving as a liaison. The following year, he went to work in production engineering sales and service for Wright Aeronautical Corporation. In 1938, he joined Jeffreys Lumber Company of Raleigh, North Carolina, a family-run lumber manufacturing business, as secretary, general manager, and director. During (and after) these years, he also served as secretary and director of Jeffreys-Spaulding Manufacturing of Chase City. (The company merged with Georgia Pacific in 1965). Finally, in 1946, Jeffreys founded Jeffreys Engineering and Equipment Company (Jeeco) in Raleigh. Two years later, he moved the company to Greensboro, North Carolina. Jeffreys sold controlling interest in the corporation and retired in 1976.","As an alumnus of Virginia Tech, Jeffreys maintained an active relationship with his alma mater. He was a member of the Hokie Club, the Founders Century Club, and the Committee of 100. He served as permanent secretary and treasurer of the Class of 1931, served on the V.P.I. Educational Foundation, and initiated the fund for a named professorship for the Industrial Engineering and Operations Research Department. In 1981, he was honored as College of Engineering Distinguised Alumnus.","In addition to these activities, Jeffreys participated in a number of civic and professional organizations.","Sidney B. Jeffreys died on February 6, 1986.","The guide to the Sidney B.

Jeffreys, a 1931 graduate of the university who, as an alumnus, played an active role in promoting and developing the university. The collection contains papers relating both to Jeffreys' years as a student and as an alumnus. Included are coursework, extracurricular ephemera, correspondence, reports, and printed materials.
