About this map

Amarillo serves as a thriving hub of the Texas Panhandle during the mid-1950s, defined by its extensive rail corridors and rapidly expanding residential grid. The landscape is dominated by the intersection of major lines including the Fort Worth and Denver, Chicago Rock Island and Pacific, and Panhandle and Santa Fe railroads, which fuel the local economy alongside facilities like the East Amarillo refinery. The city’s mid-century civic infrastructure is remarkably dense, featuring an array of educational and religious institutions such as Palo Duro High Sch, St Marys Academy, and Price College.
