About this map

Lyman Viaduct stands as a significant engineering landmark on this late nineteenth-century survey, carrying the New York New Haven and Hartford Railroad Air Line Division across the steep valleys of Tolland and New London Counties. The landscape is defined by its transition from agricultural townships like Hebron and Marlboro to industrial hubs and railroad junctions. Notable water features such as Columbia Reservoir, Moodus Reservoir, and the sprawling Pocotopaug Lake reflect the region's reliance on water power and early reservoir management.
