1963 Map of Central City West

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Peabody Coal Company rail lines and extensive strip mines dominate this mid-century view of the Western Kentucky coal fields. The landscape is a complex network of industrial extraction and traditional rural life, where small settlements like Gishton and Bremen persist alongside the heavy infrastructure of the Illinois Central and Louisville and Nashville railroads. In the eastern portion, the Green River carves the boundary between Muhlenberg and Ohio counties, passing South Carrollton and the station at Mogg.
