The rail-and-agriculture landscape of southwestern Indiana at the start of the twentieth century is defined by several converging corridors, most notably the Evansville and Terre Haute R.R. and its Mt. Vernon Branch. These lines established the primary north-south axis through Gibson and Vanderburgh counties, connecting hubs like Ft. Branch and Haubstadt. To the west, the Illinois Central R.R. serves Cynthiana, reflecting the dense rail network necessary for moving crops and timber from the fertile bottomlands near the Black River and Big Creek.
