1978 Map of Lyons

About this map

The White River carves a winding path across this landscape, defining the boundaries between Greene, Daviess, and Knox counties. The era’s transportation network is anchored by the Conrail lines that intersect at Bushrod and Beehunter, serving as a backbone for small agricultural hubs like Lyons and Newberry. These rail junctions reflect a period when rural logistics relied heavily on fixed trackage to move goods from the surrounding fields and Oil Wells to larger markets.
