About this map

The Potomac River corridor and its industrial lifeblood define this wartime survey, where the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal parallels the river's winding path through the borderlands of Maryland, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. This region is a major transportation hub, anchored by Hagerstown and Chambersburg, with a dense network of railroads including the Pennsylvania RR and Western Maryland RR. The presence of the Cumbo Freight Yard and Williamsport Sta underscores the area's strategic logistical importance during the early 1940s.
