Subseries C. Foreign railroads (Boxes 32-36)
Subseries D. Subject files (Boxes 36-43)
Subseries E. Oversize materials (Boxes 44-46)

A. Railroads, United States and Canada

Scope and Contents

Date ranges in this subseries are not inclusive; the range shows the earliest identified date and the latest identified date within that section. Some early steam and diesel railroads migrated to electrified lines, so some electric rail items may appear. Also, note that the timetables contain more than train schedules; they often have fold-out route maps, information on towns and cities, connecting lines, special trains and more. Museum and tourist railroads are not included here; see "Subseries D. Subject files -- Museums, Historical Societies and Tourist Railroads."
