USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
The Maury River and James River converge in this mid-century survey, defining a region where industrial rail networks and high mountain ridges meet. The Norfolk and Western Railway and Chesapeake and Ohio Railway follow the river bends, serving the manufacturing and transit needs of Buena Vista and Glasgow. This era shows the landscape before modern expansion, with small community centers like Mechanicsville and Pedlar Mills maintaining their distinct identities.
