I have another map online - taken from the Steam Powered Video's Comprehensive Railroad Atlas of North America - North East USA edition. Click here to download it (large file - 614 kb). This book was last updated in 1995 and is an excellent reference showing all lines, past and present. The ISBN number is 1874745005 - use this when ordering from a bookstore, hobby shop, rail museum, etc. For more information (i.e., where to buy it), contact them at:
