About this map

The James River and Maury River converge at Glasgow in this mid-century look at the Blue Ridge foothills. The landscape is defined by the heavy infrastructure of the Norfolk and Western Railway and the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway, which follow the riverbanks past industrial sites like Big Island and Holcomb Rock. To the north, the manufacturing center of Buena Vista serves as a primary hub, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with small rural communities like Mechanicsville and Buffalo Forge.
