The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts a sharp diagonal across the High Plains landscape, serving as the industrial backbone for this Dawson County region. In the late 1960s, the northern outskirts of Lamesa show a city beginning to expand past North Park and Sulphur Springs Draw, balanced between its urban core and the wide-open ranching and oil lands to the north. Evidence of the local aviation economy is clear with both Johnson Airfield and the Lamesa Municipal Airfield positioned near the town's edge.
