About this map

Cumberland Gap National Historical Park anchors this 1970s landscape where the borders of Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia converge. This era shows the dense infrastructure of the Appalachian coal country, with the Louisville and Nashville RR and Southern Railway following the tight valleys alongside the Cumberland River and Powell River. The map captures the significant elevation changes of the Pine Mountain and Cumberland Mountain ridges, which dictate the placement of settlements like Middlesboro and Harlan.
