The Illinois Central Gulf railroad defines the transportation corridor of this central Illinois landscape, connecting the small agrarian hubs of Weldon, DeLand, and Cisco. These settlements are situated within the townships of Nixon, Goose Creek, and Willow Branch, where the land is carved by the winding paths of Goose Creek and Wildcat Creek. In the southeastern corner, the geography shifts toward the recreation and research grounds of Robert Allerton Park (University of Illinois), located along the banks of the Sangamon River.
