The Joliet Arsenal dominates the southern landscape of this mid-century survey, revealing a massive military and industrial footprint defined by the U S Government Railroad and internal networks of the US Govt RR. Outside the secure boundaries of the arsenal, the village of Elwood serves as a small residential hub amidst a dense web of commercial rail lines, including the G M & O RR and the Elgin Joliet and Eastern.
