   To the casual viewer, these maps may be excessive information and give the user "overload".

   However to the historian, these maps are an indispensable tool. Depending on the need of the researcher; each map or set of maps, serves a different purpose.

   Perris and Bromley Property Atlases show the street grid, building lot size, construction method of the buildings and the number of floors. For those large commercial or industrial occupants, are usually listed. "Joe's Deli" will not be shown, but Runkel Brothers Chocolatiers or Nabisco Factories will be represented and labeled, as will be railroad stock yards, terminal buildings, hay storage, freight houses and pier occupants. It should be kept forefront in ones mind that while these Atlases do show extensive trackage, these are generalized representations and should not be considered totally accurate. They might show a roundhouse, but they may not show all sidings (much less those active or abandoned), the proper locations of switches, etc. One more note about the Bromley Atlases: a particular ward or section might have been updated while adjoining one may not have been; i.e.: the 1916 Bromley Atlases for West 58 Street and north, while 1913 Atlases for West 30 to West 58th Street are the same multi-volume issue.

   On the other hand, for the railroad historian as well as the scale modeler; the railroad issued track and siding maps are the last word in track accuracy. Unfortunately, these are not totally accurate in regards to property occupancy. And these internal railroad documents are seldom encountered publicly, hence why we only have a 1917 set and a 1947 set and nothing for the 30 year interval between. These types of maps might have been updated frequently, but it is well accepted by researchers that the paper files of large railroads were seldomly preserved. Every few years, old documents were disposed of. If they survived, they survived through the actions of a municipal filing, a railroad employee obtaining a set, or when they were in fact saved, a historical preservation group secured them for preservation.

   A happy balance between the two maps listed above are the government issues Port Facilities of the Port of New York maps. These maps were issued approximately every 10 or so years as part of a three volume set of books: Volume One was the overall geographic data for the area, such as principal channels, anchorages, obstructions, water depths, property rehabilitation. Volume Two contained the specifics: pier dimensions, type of pier construction, who owned it, who was leasing it, type of structures on the pier, including size and construction. Volume Three are the maps, with key numbers coordinated to Volume Two. These maps are generally accurate for track placement, and large industrial and commercial occupants, maritime occupants; but not much else.

   Therefore, in can be said all these maps and atlases compliment each other, and one map might fill in the blank of another between years of issues. Unfortunately, Volume Three for a lot of the years issued have not been scanned as the map plates are the size of large blueprints, and are labor intensive to scan. The books can be scanned much easier. So, any of Port Map years not shown below, are wanted. Those that are shown, I have digitized in personal collection and are available for sharing.

1932 - Port Facilities at Port of New York - War Department / US Army Corps of Engineers

   The 1932 Edition of Series Port Facilities Maps below have been digitized by the University of Missouri-St Louis. I have acquired a digitized set of the 1942 Edition from University of Texas - Austin. I have annotated these plates to identify the routing of New York Central West Side Line through Manhattan and the associated facilities served by that line.

   I am desperately seeking the 1926, 1953 Edition and 1965 Editions; at the very least - the segment of the High Line. We know they exist, but apparently have not been digitized. If you know where a set is located or have a set already digitized, please contact me at bedt14@aol.com

Employee Time Tables & Train Numbers / Symbols


New York Central & Hudson River   1846 - 1914

Northeastern Region - West 30th Street Secondary		  1976 - 1982


   Shown below are several Employee Timetables showing the schedules for trains running the 30th Street Branch Line from Spuyten Duyvil to West 30 Street.

   Do not confuse first class passenger travel with freight first and second class prioritizing - these were not passenger trains, but scheduled high priority trains consisting of mostly of US Mail destined for the US Postal Service Package Sorting Building located on the block occupying Tenth and Ninth Avenues West 29th and West 30th Streets (the current Morgan Processing & Distribution Center); as well as Railway Express cars (usually refrigerated perishables) such as meats and produce, and milk trains.

   "Regular freight" a/k/a manifest freight or third class train movements; had lowest priority for movement and is not shown in the timetables.

   Therefore these timetables do not show local & yard train operations, which would consist of cars / loads for local industry set outs and pick ups to / from the various customers along the High Line south of West 30th Street. These would reflecting by daily switch lists. Employee Time Tables also do not govern movements, they merely provide a schedule (time and day) for which a train *should* operate. Some trains operated daily, only on Saturdays or Sundays, or Holidays. If for some reason weather, mechanical issue, the train could be annulled (not run) or combined with another train later in the day. Therefore, omittance does not me there wasn't any; just that it moved around and in between all other scheduled train movements. Being this was a large terminal, freight movements were occurring around the clock.

   It should be noted, that in the timetables below westward equates to north. Furthermore, do not confuse a train number with the number of a individual locomotive, which is called a road number.

   The author is deeply indebted to Terry Link / canadasouthern.com for the re-use of their vast archives of Employee Timetables.

   In 1968, the merger of two great railroad rivals: the Pennsylvania and New York Central, formed Penn Central. Two huge struggling railroads were now consolidated into one really huge struggling railroad. While it was hoped a lot of duplicitous routes and services could be shed or at best merged; from the get go the writing was on the wall: it would be trucks that were delivering to the inner city - not trains.

   So freight traffic on the High Line and in the West Side Tunnel gradually fell off from two or three shifts daily to once daily, then thrice weekly, to twice weekly.

   On April 30, 1971; the Post Office Department, the predecessor to the current US Postal Service; terminated seven of the eight remaining mail trains (some of which still incorporated "RPO's" - Railway Post Offices) which would sort the mail enroute, and deliver and pick up mail to towns and cities along the route. The last mail train was between New York City and Washington, D.C (and this routing should not have utilized the West 30th Street Branch either). This train was abolished on June 30, 1977.

   Loss of this government contracted mail haulage was a significant nail in the coffin for the West 30th Street Branch, and the Morgan Parcel Sorting Facility. By 1969, there was now only two first class trains utilizing the High Line (one in each direction): a combined mail and express (perishables). Just three years prior, there were eight.

   Once again, my heartfelt thanks to Terry Link and his Canadian Southern website for this treasure trove of data and allowing me to republish here.
