Toms River flows into the expansive Barnegat Bay, anchoring a landscape defined by the coastal settlements of the Jersey Shore during the early 1940s. The region is characterized by established riverfront towns like Island Heights, Pine Beach, and Beachwood, contrasted with the narrow barrier beach communities of Seaside Heights and Lavallette. Significant local landmarks include the Royal Pines Hospital and the State Game Farm, while the Pennsylvania railroad network provides a glimpse into the era's transportation infrastructure, even as some segments are already marked as Abandoned.
