New Haven & West Haven Trolleys
Twelve included images: five maps, four postcards, one 1918 photograph and two route-guide pages. Neighboring East Haven and Branford material is explicitly identified as connecting-route context. Route 46 and Route 47 are the guidebook’s itinerary numbers, not verified transit operator line numbers. Maps have different dates and geographic coverage; no complete timetable or route register has been acquired.

notes: Public domain in the United States according to Commons PD-US-expired; base map visibly bears a 1902 copyright imprint. The source states that later shading identifies the section now owned by the Shore Line Trolley Museum. Do not label that shading as an original 1902 feature. Only 600 pixels wide: useful as a local overview, not detailed zoom. Resized and WebP compressed only; no historical content added, retouched or removed.

Map is schematic and includes waterways and other contextual lines. Printed map extracted from page 68, excluding running book title and page number, then rotated 90 degrees clockwise; map content unaltered.
