About this map

The agricultural heart of Illinois in the early 1950s is defined by a dense network of country schools and rural churches centered around Bloomington. This area shows the transition from local steam-and-rail dominance to modern infrastructure, where the Gulf Mobile and Ohio and Pennsylvania railroads intersect with the Illinois Terminal electric line. These rail corridors supported small grain-handling points and livestock hubs like Stanford, Shirley, and McLean.
