I found a good online source of old topo maps many from about 1900.

[www.lib.utexas.edu]

Click on the state you are interested in and then look for the Historical Topographic Maps tab.

A few I found interesting:

Rico District Colorado showing the Rio Grand Southern and switchbacks to mines.

Santa Fe Mew Mexico showing the "Santa Fe Southern" Chili Line

Cranberry North Carolina showing the ET&WNC before the extension to Boone NC

Are there other online sources of old topo maps that are helpful?
