I have been looking for maps of the Boston and Maine railway system. I was hoping to find a general map of the whole system and then maps of the northshore area. The Danvers branch, Salem yard, Peabody branch, and Wakefield center. I looked through the forms and weren't able to find any links on where I could purchase these.

Thanks for any help you can give me!

The B&M published system maps in its passenger timetable through the 1950s and those documents are available from timetable dealers. From a more modern era, there was a nice poster-size system map published by the B&M during the Alan Dustin years (late 70s/early 80s). Have you tried eBay?

In 2007or so, Scott Whitney put out a CD with scans of older and less-old as opposed to current track profile charts. No idea if it's still available directly from him, but if you're looking on resale sites -- as already suggested in Tom Nelligan's post -- you'll probably find the CD a worthy acquisition.
