About this map

The Bourbeuse River and Meramec River carve deep, winding paths across this Franklin County landscape, shaping a region defined by its rural river-and-rail infrastructure. In the post-war era, the town of Union serves as a hub where the ST Louis San Francisco and Chicago Rock Island And Pacific railroads intersect. Local industry and early tourism are evident in features like the Old Acid Mine near the Meramec and the Benson Tourist City near Stanton.
