Marshyhope Creek and the Nanticoke River dominate the landscape of the Eastern Shore in the mid-1940s, providing a natural drainage system for the agricultural tracts of Dorchester and Wicomico counties. Small rural hubs such as Rhodesdale and Eldorado are connected by the Baltimore and Eastern railroad line, which served as a vital transport corridor for this region's farming economy.
