Thanks to Mr. Dunford for suggesting Carpenter's maps. It never occurred
to me that Carpenter might show as old as the Farmville & Powhatan.

Here (attached) are the three pages covering the Farmville & Powhatan &
Pacific Fast Line RR. Artwork is sized so that it will print nicely on an
8.5 x 11" sheet of paper.

Carpenter's stated intent is to map the nation's railroads as they existed
in 1946. But occasionally he throws in a juicy tidbit like the F&P
(abandoned 1918.) If railroad routes are of interest to you, Carpenter is
an excellent investment: Railroad Atlas of the United States in 1946,
vols. 1 - 4, Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2003. Volume 1
contains the Virginia maps.
