USGS Topo · Published 1949About this map
The Ohio River corridor serves as the industrial and transportation backbone of this tri-state region during the mid-1940s. Heavy rail lines including the Pennsylvania RR and Baltimore and Ohio RR hug the riverbanks, connecting bustling centers like Martins Ferry and Warwood to the interior coal and manufacturing markets. The map reveals a densely settled valley floor contrasted with the winding ridges of the Richland and Liberty districts.
