Seeking some Maps

[firthorfifth06]

I'm looking for any maps existing of the Lake Hopatcong/Ogden Mine RR and the Hibernia RR

Google searches yielded nothing, any place I can look?

The standard "bible" of that region is Larry Lowenthal's book "Iron Mine Railroads of Northern New Jersey," (Tri-State Railway Historical Society, 1981, accoding to google).
I looked at a copy about 5-10 years ago. It was fascinating, full of great information and maps. If you can find a copy you are all set.

PS. Just checked wikipedia. Not bad.

Most of what you are looking for, tend to be locked up in library and museum colelctions.
But the Lowenthal book is THE resource to have, again if you can find it (and then afford it).

Carfloater is right about affording it -- used copies are $90 to $190 on Amazon.

Down to earth, Princeton (NJ) Public Libary has a copy --you don't need a library card to read it in the library and copy it.
You can look online if it is in before you make the trip:
http://catalog.princetonlibrary.org/sea ... y&1%2C1%2C
and hope that if it says it is there it really is there (which the case 100% of the time). Hope that link works.

Also, the Museum at Lake Hopatcong has some maps and books.
