Northeast American Railroad Network

Today's map is finally not just another Montréal downtown map of demographic data! Three cheers!

Montréal is on the map, but not exclusively.

Behold, the sadly underused (for passenger services) railroad network of the Atlantic Northeast!

Sources today are the STRM satellite elevation files no longer graciously made available by NASA (more tax money well spent), and completely random North American Transportation shapefiles downloaded from mapcruzin.com. They may not be 100% accurate, but it's believable enough for me!

Railroads located in the US are in red, and those in Canada are blue.
