USGS Topo · Published 1944About this map
The city of Freeport serves as a dense industrial and rail hub in this mid-century Illinois landscape, where the Pecatonica River and Yellow Creek converge. The urban center is framed by extensive railroad infrastructure, including the Illinois Central, Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific, and the Chicago and North Western lines. Notable logistical features like the Wallace Yards at West Junction highlight the importance of the rail economy during this era.
