About this map

Newark and the dense industrial corridor of northern New Jersey dominate the northeastern corner of this regional study, which captures the post-war expansion across the Mid-Atlantic. The intricate rail network including the Pennsylvania RR and Reading RR serves as the backbone of the economy, connecting the coal regions of Carbon County and the ridges of Broad Mountain in Pennsylvania to the busy waters of Upper New York Bay.
