About this map

Sanders and Sparta sit as primary rail-side hubs in this 1951 topographic survey, where the Louisville and Nashville railroad tracks follow the winding course of Eagle Creek. This corridor serves as a tripartite border region where Carroll, Gallatin, and Owen Counties meet amidst a landscape of sharp ridges and deep drainage basins. Away from the rail line, the rural community structure of the early 1950s is evident in the placement of Drury Chapel and Park Ridge Sch, which anchored the scattered farmsteads of the Kentucky hill country.
