USGS Topo · Published 1944About this map
The railroad junction at Wheatland serves as the focal point of this 1940s landscape, where the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad intersects with local coal mining operations. The surrounding Knox County countryside is marked by industrial activity, including the Knox Consolidated No 1 Shaft near Ragsdale and the Peacock Mine to the south. These sites, along with the Standard Mine, indicate a robust extractive economy integrated with the rail network.
