1937 Map of Utica

About this map

Utica and Waco serve as primary rail hubs along the Burlington and Quincy RR in this detailed survey of the Nebraska plains. The landscape is defined by the rigid grid of the Sixth Principal Meridian and the winding courses of Lincoln Creek and the West Fork Big Blue River. This 1930s depiction reveals an incredibly dense network of rural infrastructure, particularly the high frequency of schoolhouses like School No 36 and Abraham Sch that once anchored these farming townships.
