About this map

Clifton Forge serves as a vital rail hub where the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad meets the waters of the Jackson River. This late-1940s landscape is defined by the heavy industry of the Rich Patch Mines and the growing municipal centers of Covington and Selma. The map highlights a sharp contrast between the industrial valley and the recreational retreats of the highlands, such as the Cascades Golf Club and Hot Springs to the north.
