The Chicago and Alton and the electric Illinois Traction System intersect at Carlinville, anchoring a dense agrarian and industrial corridor in Macoupin County. This 1931 revision of a 1923 survey reveals a landscape organized by both the township grid and the winding paths of Otter Creek and Macoupin Creek. The rail network defines the region's economy, with the Chicago and Northwestern and the Peoria and St Louis lines connecting smaller outposts like Nilwood, Girard, and Modesto.
