Railroad Maps
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, June 25, 2002 12:08 AM
Hello,
Does any one know where I can find current railroad maps online. I live in Prince Georges' County Maryland, and would like to know more about the different rail lines that run through the area. I would also like to know more indepth information like, the speed limits, typical type of cargo, train frequency, schedule, ect. Thanks for all of the help.

Hi Sam,

This link goes to the interactive map on the BNSF web site. http://www.bnsf.com/about_bnsf/html/division_maps.html
I am sure other railroads have similar maps.

Map are life saver, but it would be good to have city maps with the railroad info marked, example Santa Fe junction etc.
