About this map

Agricultural irrigation and rail transport define the landscape of this Central Valley region during the mid-20th century. The settlement of Nelson serves as a focal point, situated at the junction of Nelson Road and the Southern Pacific railroad line. To the north, the smaller rail stop at Esquon is positioned near the Sacramento Northern tracks, highlighting the era's reliance on twin rail corridors for moving crops and goods.
