1963 Map of Ramsdell

About this map

Ramsdell sits at the intersection of rail and road infrastructure in the eastern Texas Panhandle during the early 1960s. The settlement is centered along the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad, which parallels the dual routes of Highway 40 and Highway 66. This corridor represents a significant transportation artery, contrasting with the ranching landscape that defines the surrounding area. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly dissected by drainage networks, including Richardson Creek and Sandy Creek, while the Wheeler Co Collingsworth Co boundary line divides the northern plains from the southern breaks.
