This excellent railroad map shows the Great Northern and its connections in bold black line, extending from Duluth and the Twin Cities to the west coast. The map covers from Lake Michigan to the Pacific, and spans north into southern Canada. It is distinguished by its distorted depiction of Montana and Wyoming. Montana's southern border is even with Idaho's southern border, and the northern part of the state is labeled "All Free Land." Wyoming is enlarged so that it pushes Colorado off the map and appears to border Arizona. Published in Seventh Annual Report of the Trade and Commerce of Minneapolis for the Year Ending December 31, 1889.
