USGS Topo · Published 1950About this map
The Nashville Chattanooga and St Louis Railroad anchors the industrial and social life of the Sequatchie Valley in this mid-century survey. The landscape is defined by the sharp contrast between the level valley floor and the rising Cumberland Plateau to the west. Whitwell serves as the primary hub, where the Whitwell Mine Incline once connected the town's valley-bottom commerce to the resource extraction at the Whitwell Mine on the plateau rim.
