USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
The Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad hub at Pacific Junction anchors this study of the Missouri River bottomlands and the loess bluffs of western Iowa. In the years following the mid-century, the landscape reveals a transition between the industrial rail yards and a scattered rural education network, featuring Lincoln Sch, Gowen Sch No 1, and West Liberty Sch No 3. The floodplain is defined by the shifting course of the Missouri River and engineered drainages like St Marys Ditch and the Papillion Creek confluence.
