1965 Map of Castleton

About this map

Castleton serves as the primary settlement in this section of Reno County, situated at the intersection of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad and the North Fork of the Ninnescah River. The landscape is defined by the transition between agrarian plains and the emerging waters of the Cheney Reservoir, which dominates the eastern half of the map. This reservoir, surrounded by the Cheney Reservoir State Game Management Area, represents a major mid-century transformation of the local geography.
