I'm late to the thread, but here's some odds and ends. Each is a failure as a time-travel story (from a readability aspect), but worth a gander if the underlying mileau appeals...
Horror - H.P. Lovcraft's The Shadow Out Of Time. Literally Lovecraft meets JW Campbell. It's a time travel horror story. Available in the Lovecraft collection here at MR.
19th century Utopian fiction. If you liked Looking Backwards by Bellamy, try The Crystal Button by Chauncey Thomas. If you can't put your head back into the 19th century mindset, don't try reading it, it'll be dull as dishwater. Free e-book (in TXT and HTML) at Project Gutenberg Australia (scanned, OCR-proofed, and uploaded by yours truly.)
A minor Heinlein short story, not mentioned yet, called Elsewhen. I find the story weak, but the underlying idea endlessly fascinating. There's a great novel (or novels) buried in there for some writer to write someday....
