About this map

The Atlantic and Pacific Railroad cuts a definitive line across this high-desert territory, serving as the primary corridor for commerce and movement through the late nineteenth-century Southwest. In the mid-1880s, the tracks connect fledgling settlements like Gallup and Manuelito to larger regional outposts. The map reveals a landscape defined by its vital water sources, from Coal Mineral Springs to the numerous wells and pools that supported both cattle ranching at Crane's Ranch and military operations at Fort Wingate.
