But the red car system would be perfect. I'm looking for something sizable. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Is this along the lines of what you're looking for? It's from 1906 -- very cool-looking map either way. You might want to check out the UT source site, too; they appear to have quite a few historical maps.
