About this map

The James River carves a dramatic series of horseshoe bends through the heart of this Botetourt County landscape, including the sharp turn at Dillon. This 1961 survey, updated with 1972 aerial photography, documents the industrial and transport infrastructure of Buchanan, where the Chesapeake and Ohio and Norfolk and Western railroads converge along the riverbanks. The town is anchored by local landmarks like the Fairview Cemetery and the Assembly of God Ch.
