About this map

New Windsor and Alpha serve as the primary hubs of activity in this 1950s Illinois landscape, which was later updated with 1970s revisions. The region is defined by the east-west corridor of the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad, which historically drove the local economy. Agriculture and industry meet south of Alpha, where the Alpha Coal Mine is noted as abandoned, indicating a shift in the local extractive economy.
