About this map

The timber and transit hub of De Ridder serves as the focal point for this survey of Beauregard Parish, where a dense network of competing rail lines converges. The Kansas City Southern and Southern Pacific corridors dominate the landscape, supporting established timber-related settlements like Ludington, Grabow, and Carson. The layout of the region is deeply tied to the lumber industry's peak, evidenced by the numerous stretches of Old Logging Railroad Grade that branch into the surrounding piney woods near Hickory Branch and Cowpen Creek.
