About this map

The railroad junction at Blairstown serves as a focal point for this mid-century survey of the Henry and Johnson County line. Three major rail corridors—the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific, Missouri Kansas Texas, and St Louis San Francisco—crisscross the landscape, illustrating the region's importance as a transportation hub for agricultural and mineral transport. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Big Creek and its many tributaries, including Norris Creek and White Oak Cr, where a system of levees protects the bottomlands.
