About this map

The Rio Grande valley and its confluence with the Rio Puerco define this central New Mexico landscape during a period of significant railway development. The map prominently features the Belen Grant, Casa Colorado Grant, and Sevilleta Grant, highlighting the lingering boundaries of early Spanish land grants. Strategic transportation routes are evident along the A. T. & S. F. R. R. (Belen Cut Off), which skirts the Valencia Socorro County Line near the settlement of Becker.
