1968 Map of Exmore
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
The Penn Central corridor defines the geography of the Eastern Shore in this survey, anchoring a string of small agricultural and commercial hubs from Keller and Painter down through Exmore. This central rail spine provided the vital link for the region's truck farming economy, supported by the Virginia Truck Experimental Station located near Middlesex. While the inland settlements focus on the railroad, the landscape is deeply etched by tidal waterways like Nandua Creek and the Machipongo River, which create a complex network of necks and coves.
