The Northern Pacific Railway's system map lays out the company's lines across the western United States, a reminder of how the railroad tied distant territories to the rest of the country. Completed in 1883, the Northern Pacific ran from the Great Lakes region to the Pacific Northwest, and its route brought tourists to Yellowstone through a branch line connecting to the park. Maps like this one were printed to help travelers plan connections, and they also advertised the scenic destinations the railroad hoped to sell. Look closely at the network to see how it linked towns, ports and natural attractions across the region.
