About this map

The Locust Fork Black Warrior River defines the northwest corner of this industrial landscape, where the coal-rich hills of Jefferson County supported a dense network of early 20th-century mining operations and railroad junctions. The terrain is dominated by ridges such as Bagley Ridge and Nashville Mountain, which are cut through by the numerous rail lines essential to the region's economy, including the Southern RR and the Kansas City Memphis and Birmingham RR.
