The Potomac River carves a deep, winding path through this corner of the Appalachian landscape, where the historic Chesapeake and Ohio Canal and the B & O Railroad converge at the settlement of Oldtown. This map documents a critical transportation corridor at the Maryland and West Virginia border, showing the dense network of rails and river navigation that once powered the region's economy. The topography is dominated by the massive ridge lines of Warrior Mountain and Town Hill, which hem in the fertile valley flats of Town Creek.
