About this map

The town of Gowrie serves as a significant rail junction in this mid-1960s Iowa landscape, where multiple major lines converge amidst the fertile prairie of Webster County. The Chicago and North Western, the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific, and the Fort Dodge Des Moines and Southern all cross here, illustrating the town's role as a vital agricultural shipping point. North of town, the small community of Callender is situated along the West Buttrick Creek corridor, reflecting a classic Midwestern settlement pattern oriented toward the rail lines and local water sources.
