They are used in professional activities, for travel planning, or as a historical source. The research identified 253 unique titles forming 348 separate volumes. The bibliographic data are presented in tables corresponding to particular geographic regions. The lists are preceded by a descriptive part devoted to the origins of railway cartography, research methods, and a brief overview of selected items.
