1979 Map of Virden South

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Girard and Virden anchor the northern reaches of this Macoupin County landscape, where the agricultural grid meets an intricate network of competing railroads. The Burlington Northern, Gulf Central Illinois, and Chicago and North Western lines intersect these prairie towns, illustrating a late-20th-century transport hub. Near the western border, the Sunset Lake reservoir stands out with its Spillway and Intake, carved into the drainage of the East Fork of Otter Creek.
