USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
Chesapeake and Ohio railroad tracks follow the winding paths of Beaver Creek and its many forks, connecting the coal-rich hollows of Floyd County in the mid-1950s. The landscape is defined by its industrial activity, with several Strip Mines and individual mines dotting the ridges above settlements like Manton and Langley. This era shows a community deeply integrated with the rail line, evidenced by numerous combined station and settlement names such as Alphoretta and Samson Sta.
