About this map

The Raisin River corridor dominates this 1912 military reconnaissance, illustrating a period of intensive rail development along the Michigan shoreline. The city of Monroe sits at a critical junction where the river meets the marshlands of Lake Erie, surrounded by a dense network of competing lines including the Pere Marquette R. R. and the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern R. R. To the north, the small settlement at Newport and the Brest P.O. coastal landing anchor the township of Berlin.
