About this map

The Northern Electric RR cuts a sharp diagonal path across this landscape, illustrating the early 20th-century expansion of electric interurban rail through Butte County. Local transportation is further defined by the Chico and Oroville Road and the Oroville Branch line, which meets the northern rail at the settlement of Tres Vias. These corridors served small rural hubs such as Blavo, Ramada, and the siding at Shippee.
