@380kmh Train guy! The tracks are the same, right? So this is a usage map?https://twitter.com/wgeary/status/861207578667339777 …

but if he had used an accurate modern freight map, your point would be correct--no diff in tracks...
-
...rather, passenger rail in USA only borrows a small portion of freight rail's infrastructure

Railway networks come from Bureau of Transportation Statistics' 2015 National Transportation Atlas Database: https://www.rita.dot.gov/bts/sites/rita.dot.gov.bts/files/publications/national_transportation_atlas_database/2015/polyline …

Are you saying that the BTS database includes railways that are no longer in use? If so, do you know where one can find more accurate data?
-
Yeah--there are some routes that caught my eye in Oregon, Nevada, Wyoming; prob others--I'm comparing to my map from http://www.railmaps.com

i see, thanks for mentioning it. the map is rather expensive :/ will look into it further
-
yeah...I bought it a couple years ago, had it on my wall for a long time
