The railroad-carved landscape of eastern Washington is clearly defined in this mid-1960s study, where three major rail corridors converge. The Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific cuts a diagonal path through the south, while the Spokane Portland and Seattle and Union Pacific navigate the coulees and rocky terrain to the north and east. This era of transit is further documented by the Old Military Road and the Pacific Highway, illustrating how historical travel routes adapted to the basalt-rimmed topography of Adams Co.
