1960 Map of Reynolds

About this map

Reynolds serves as a central hub in this corner of Jefferson County, where the iron rails of the Burlington Northern meet the rural agricultural landscape. The town sits just north of the winding Rose Creek, which snakes through the southern half of the quadrangle before crossing into Kansas. To the east, the small settlement of Thompson marks a junction near the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad line, illustrating the critical role of rail transport in the mid-century Nebraska economy.
