1940 Map of Tallula
USGS Topo · Published 1968About this map
The Sangamon River meanders through the northeastern corner of this landscape, marking the historic grounds of New Salem State Park and the site of the Old Salem Chautauqua. This 1940 revision documents a sophisticated rail network defining the central Illinois prairie, where the Chicago and Kansas City Shortline and the Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern intersect the terrain. Small agricultural hubs and junctions like Pleasant Plains and Tallula are positioned along these corridors, serving as the primary infrastructure for the region's rural economy.
