About this map

Tonawanda Creek flows through the northern reaches of this Genesee County landscape, anchoring a region defined by its mid-century transportation network. At the height of the steam-to-diesel era, a dense grid of railroads crisscrosses the terrain, including the New York Central, Lehigh Valley, and the Delaware Lackawanna and Western. These lines supported small rural hubs like Lehigh Sta and Griswold, connecting agricultural outposts to larger markets during the final years of World War II.
