Railroad Maps

Railroad-related Land Records

The two most popular reasons for wishing to consult railroad-related land records are property ownership investigations and historical research.

In some cases (yards, stations, repair facilities, etc.) a railroad company might have purchased and owned land outright, but in the case of laying track from destination to destination, most simply purchased or otherwise secured a "Right of Way" through the property of private owners - i.e. permission to lay track, run trains and do needed maintenance along a long, narrow swath. The owners still owned the property, but the railroad was allowed to conduct agreed-upon activities on the swath in question. In many cases the Rights of Way were not perpetual, but were granted for, say, 99 years. At the end of that time period, the use rights would have to be re-negotiated, or full use and control would revert to the current property owner. Some lines were subsequently abandoned and even dismantled long before the expiration date came up.

The best place to find out the current status of a particular piece of land would be the Recorder of Deeds and/or Tax Mapping office in the relevant county's courthouse. Right-of-way agreements might be attached to or referenced in the chain of title (i.e. the succession of recorded deeds). And the County Tax Assessment Office would have current information as to ownership of each geographic parcel if that is in question. Someone in either of those two offices or perhaps in the County Planning Commission Office might also know the general status of the different rail lines in the county -i.e. how long the Rights-of-Way were for, when the track was laid, and when the time limit was or will be up.

Railroad Map Series at PA State Archives

The following are the primary series of railroad map records that are processed and readily available for use:

• Erie Railroad and the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad
• Lehigh and New England Railroad
• Lehigh Valley Railroad
• Pennsylvania Railroad

Erie Railroad and the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad

For track maps of the Erie and D, L & W lines, see Track Maps of the Erie Railroad and the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad, circa 1917-1976, Series {#300m164}. Some of the lines and branches covered in the series' twenty-four boxes include:

• Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad
  
• • Bangor & Portland Division, including Martins Creek Branch, Limestone Spur, Wind Gap Branch, Atlantic Branch and Bangor Branch
  • Bloomsburg Branch
  • Main Line
  • Mountain Home Branch
  • Scranton-area branch lines
• Erie Railroad
• • Bradford Division
  • Delaware Division
  • Kent Division
  • Mahoning Division
  • Marion Division
  • Meadville Division
  • Tioga Division
  • Wyoming Division

Lehigh and New England Railroad

For maps of the routes and land holdings of the Lehigh and New England Railroad, the series Engineering Drawings, [ca.1886-1940 (bulk: 1915-1930)]{#311m.284} will be of interest. These engineering drawings consist primarily of maps and structure drawings, although other subjects such as bridges, grade crossings and equipments are also documented. The series is currently being processed, and an item-level Excel spreadsheet detailing drawings that have been catalogued thus far is available in the Archives search room, and can be obtained as an email attachment from the railroad archivist. Paper or digital copies of the items on the list can then be ordered.

For more and perhaps more easily obtainable maps and aerial photographs, you may also want to consult the following sources:

• The National Archives' Record Group #134: Interstate Commerce Commission Records, subgroup: Records of the Bureau of Valuation
  • Series include:
    • Valuation orders and related records, 1914-1934
    • Railroad valuation records, 1910-1974
    • Land and appraisal records, 1921-1948
    • Valuation section maps, 1916-1919
    • Railroad valuation maps, 1910-1974
  • In order to document their corporate valuations to the ICC, American railroad companies had to submit detailed maps of their real estate holdings.
  • A word search in the National Archives' ARC system for "interstate commerce 134" or "interstate commerce 134 valuation", with a clarifying selection of "maps and charts" is a good place to start.
• Other good sources of detailed real estate depictions are the Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps for Pennsylvania. 
  
• The "Transportation" section of the State Archives' Manuscript Group-11 (our general collection of Pennsylvania maps)
• Other numbered maps in the MG-11 Map Collection, including:
  • #544, U.S. Geological Survey Topographic Maps, 1942-1973
  • #567, T.M. Fowler's Panoramac Bird's Eye Maps, 1884-1905
  • recently added railroad maps that may not be included in the old topical sections (search for the word "rail" or "railroad")
• Any of the State Archives aerial photograph collections, including:
  • RG-31 Records of the Dept. of Commerce
    • Aerial Photographs and Index of the 1940 Aerial Survey of Pennsylvania, 1937-1942. {#31.18}
    • images for these and other years available online via the PennPilot project
  • MG-416 Aero Service Corporation Photographs, [ca. 1926-1948].
  • MG-281 Samuel W. Kuhnert Papers, [ca. 1912-1976]
  • MG-425 Ebasco Environmental Company Aerial Photographs, [ca. 1980-1985]
  • MG-286 Hollyman Publicity Photographs, ca 1940-1959. (2 cu. ft.) {#286m.169}
• A publication by Thomas Townsend Taber (Thomas T. Taber III) entitled Railroads of Pennsylvania Encyclopedia and Atlas (Muncy, Pa.: T.T. Taber, 1987). The State Archives does not own a copy of this book, but it should be available at libraries or via interlibrary loan.

Lehigh Valley Railroad

Tracings and blueprints for buildings, bridges, and track routes of the Land and Tax Department for the Wyoming, Jersey City and Buffalo Divisions of the Lehigh Valley Railroad are included in Series {#274m.568}, Track and Structures Drawings, 1870-1976. Coverage includes locations in the states of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York.

Pennsylvania Railroad

For land and trackage owned by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, the State Archives holds a series of 49 digitized rolls, originally filmed in 1976 by the Penn Central, entitled: Real Estate Maps and Atlases (RRV 1101-1148) {#286m.423} . The original maps were never transferred to the Archives, but a book by book inventory of the digitized microfilm exists. The images are arranged geographically, i.e. linearly along particular rail lines. This digitized microfilm, such as it is, is our best and most comprehensive source of PRR maps at this time.

In addition, we now hold a physical volume entitled Real Estate Atlas of the Western Pennsylvania Railroad, Butler Division, [ca. 1860-1878] (1 volume) {#286m.1525} which shows track layouts and property ownership along the tracks for what later became part of the Conemaugh Division of the PRR in northwestern Pennsylvania.

Please note: There also exists an unprocessed series of PRR/Penn Central maps entitled: Architectural Drawings and Maps, ca 1818-1970 (1883-1965). (297 cu. ft.) {#286m.254}. These maps, bridge and structure drawings remains unprocessed. While researchers are welcome to come in and browse through the hundreds of boxes of rolled maps and drawings, Archives staff is not able to do research for non-visiting patrons in this series. No comprehensive finding aid exists for these records.

Another series relating to PRR real estate holdings, rights of way and agreements is the Valuable Papers File, [ca. 1850-1967] (157 cubic feet), which was maintained by the Secretary's office. This series primarily represents agreements that the PRR entered into with individuals, companies, and local governments. While the records are primarily legal documents rather than maps, information provided includes the effective date, purpose, names of interacting parties, terms, financial arrangements, and description of principle right or property conveyed. Records vary as to scope and nature, including pipe and wire, trackage and crossing rights, real estate, physical facilities, financial obligations, operations with affiliated companies, governmental authorizations, purchases, and so forth. The Valuable Papers are arranged numerically by file number and are indexed on 27 digitized rolls (RRV 1073-1099) in a variety of ways: alphabetically by personal or corporate name of parties, alphabeticaly by name of geographical location, and numerically by file number.

Please note: Not all of the Valuable Papers were deposited at the archives, so we may not hold all of the items referenced in the index.
