Plan of that Part of the Isthmus of Panama Eligible for effecting a Communication Between The Atlantic & Pacific from Observations & Surveys performed in the Years 1828 & 1829, By J.A. Lloyd.

This detailed topographical map depicts the region surrounding the narrowest portion of the Isthmus of Panama, based on surveys conducted by John Augustus Lloyd between 1828 and 1829. Around the time that railroads were being invented, President Bolivar of Gran Colombia commissioned a study of the area between Chagres and Panama City with the intent of building a railroad to connect the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. Although the report concluded that a railroad was possible, the project was abandoned until 1850, when US privateers began building the Panama Railroad.
