From the late 1890s up until the 1960s, most railroads every several years issued a book called "Official List of Officers, Agents and Stations."
These are invaluable documents for anyone doing history. They list all stations, mileages, connections, telegraph calls, officials &c. Most railroads also included lists of track scales, cranes, stockpens, &c.
Does anyone know if any of the Lehigh Valley "Official Lists" have been digitized, and where they are available? I'm trying to figure out the LV's Mahanoy & Hazleton Division, and an Official List would be a great help.
