North America

These files map railroads across North America. They are organized by railroad (Central America is organized by country), with some classic-era company-specific files for major railroads.

Some territories and borders may shift over time. Files are organized by general Western recognition at the time the files were constructed.

Blue links will allow you to download the zip files, which can be unzipped and opened in Google Earth.
