About this map

New River carves a deep path through the Appalachians in this early 1930s survey, where the border between West Virginia and Virginia follows the crest of Peters Mountain. The town of Narrows serves as a critical junction where the Norfolk and Western and Virginian lines navigate the river gap. The landscape is defined by its industrial transit and remote mountain communities, seen in the string of small stops like Penvir and Pearisburg Sta along the water's edge.
