About this map

Linton serves as the focal point of this 1938 survey, revealing an intensive industrial landscape defined by numerous Strip Mine operations that pockmark the terrain. The region's economy is clearly anchored by a dense network of competing railroads, including the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific, Illinois Central, Pennsylvania, and the Chicago Indianapolis and Louisville. These lines connect the main town with smaller outlying settlements like Midland Junction, Victoria, and Vicksburg.
