Railroad lines maps

Could you either provide or direct me to a resource on maps of railroad lines? We would prefer a book, if one is available, but would also be interested in individual maps.

... Any assistance you can provide me would be greatly appreciated.

Identify all the major railroads

I am a seventh grade United States History teacher at a middle school who is trying to identify all the major railroads in the United States in the 1860s to 1890s. This is proving to be a daunting task.

I am impressed with many of the maps you have on your website. ...
