Talk:Pelham Park and City Island Railway

Derailment
I am surprised to find little information about the derailmetn in the article, although this is available in the following sources:
 * Monorail Car Fails on its First Trip - Flimsy Structure Supporting It Gives Way and Many Are Badly Hurt. - Fall to the Floor in Layers. The New York Times, 17. Juli 1910.
 * John Metcalfe: On This Day in 1910, New York's Monorail Suffered a Grievous Wreck. A sad tale of extremely poor transportation planning. Version of 16 July 2014. Downloaded on 17 September 2015. --NearEMPTiness (talk) 05:35, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

Additional map depicting geography of the time period (1884-1914)?
I feel the article could use another map depicting geography of the time period if such a map exists. Something to give the viewer a sense of the functioning of the monorail. Does the Monorail Route exist on any maps between 1884 and 1914? I'm not seeing anything in commons:Category:Maps of City Island, Bronx. Just a thought. --Wil540 art (talk) 00:27, 4 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Created a map for these two railroads using Julius Bien's Pelham map (1893) as a basemap. Pelham Park and City Island Railroad 1893.png Made a few assumptions: (a) what the exact location of the line either on the roadf or near by?; and (b) found a hotel in the middle of City Island, not sure this was the stop. Your comments and feedback welcome!  - DutchTreat (talk) 14:14, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Nice! I had done some searching for a WP:RS for Brown's Hotel, and didn't find anything; I'm hesitant to put anything on the map that can't be reliably sourced. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:23, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Uploaded version 2 which removes the stop labelled "Hotel" on City Island. I agree that this map should not introduce unsourced information. Thank you for the quick response. - DutchTreat (talk) 11:02, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Added that to the article. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:16, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Very nicely done ! --Wil540 art (talk) 23:13, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
