About this map

Industrial extraction and small-town growth define this mid-century landscape in Vermilion County. The northern reaches are heavily marked by extensive Strip Mine operations along the Vermilion River, while the eastern corridor shows a dense concentration of settlement and industry following the rail lines. Communities like Westville, Belgium, and South Danville appear during a peak era of rail transport, served by a network including the Wabash and Illinois Central.
