1955 Map of Broken Bow
USGS Topo · Published 1955About this map
The Sand Hills dominate the northern landscape of this mid-century survey, giving way to the fertile river valleys that dictated the settlement patterns of central Nebraska. The Middle Loup River and North Loup River serve as the primary arteries for both water and commerce, with towns like Ord and Loup City serving as regional hubs. The intersection of the Chicago Burlington and Quincy RR and the Union Pacific RR further south illustrates the critical role of rail transport in moving agricultural goods from the heart of the Custer County area to wider markets.
