The southern Illinois coal belt near Christopher and Zeigler is defined by its industrial roots and rail infrastructure in the late 1960s. The landscape is a network of water management and extraction history, where several Mine Dumps and Sewage Disposal Ponds sit alongside necessary municipal resources like the Filtration Plant and the Miners Hospital in Christopher. Regional transportation is anchored by the Illinois Central Railroad and the Chicago Burlington and Quincy Railroad, which move through the townships of Tyrone and Browning.
