About this map

Baltimore and Ohio rail lines cut a diagonal path through this 1940s landscape of Montgomery County, anchoring a series of small rural communities and stopping points. The map documents the transition between older rural centers and the mid-century expansion, clearly distinguishing between Germantown and the site of Old Germantown. To the west, the settlements of Bucklodge and Bucklodge Sta appear along the tracks, surrounded by family-named landmarks like Thompsons Corner and Slidell.
