It failed because of Israel...

In fact,this is also the state of western europe at this moment

thank you, interesting, well research, well narrated

The unions prevented them from pivoting to arc furnace because those required less labor than blast furnaces. Moment that happened, it was wrap for BS.

is it free to walk arounf there

The saluda and broad rivers merge at Columbia forming the congaree

Cool video! It’s a shame that too many people had their hand on the till at the company that most were only worried about bonuses. With a lack on innovation it was only a matter of time that they were gonna lose their dominance

Never ending EPA inspections and fines. Ever increasing payouts to politicians to stay in business.

What you have shown is NOT the Neshanic Station station. The station is diagonally across from the Riverside Inn. The station was converted into a residence.

Great do one on Santee canal, too ,please sir?

the interior of this tunnel is being entirely redone now

Cool voice. Awesome documentary.

Thanks for posting the video and providing a little insight and history. When I am in the area, I'll try to walk this trail, the tunnel for the river looks interesting. There are plenty of unique places that are not well known but are small gems to be discovered. So just to add to places to visit, there are remains of the old Lackawanna Railroad Turntable in Boonton NJ. It's right next to an unused railroad bridge over the Rockaway River. It's not even a hike, it's like 200 feet down a path, and there's a small Railroad Museum very close by on Morris Ave, but it has not been open when I've passed through. Since now you've got me thinking, there are plenty of towns and places named High Bridge, and it's probably a clue that there's some interesting topography there. There's a High Bridge connecting Manhattan and the Bronx, a fantastic stone and steel aqueduct. It's been renovated with a pedestrian walkway on the top. In my opinion, one of the most unique and interesting bridges in the area. Thanks again!

Great video with beautiful shots. Learning a little bit of history and primary used by me to weather my Walthers blast furnace for my n-scale model steel industry railroad. Thanks

I still work in a steel mill the answer is democrats and their leftist ways destroyed middle class jobs and rely more on Chinese steel so the politicians can line their pockets and say it’s bc of climate change🤪 Fact: woke Pittsburgh now has so much red tape for any type of industrial applications that U.S steel is leaving and moving to another state.

Gross mismanagement and failure to modernize

the audio is crooked

The government and unions had a lot to do with the downfall of manufacturing in the US.

Did they film Robocop here?

At the eve of WWI Germany produced more steel than the whole rest of Europe together. And the USA produced more steel than the whole rest of the world together.

This was the ore kilm

fun Facts There is no ammunition for the guns and there are no missiles on board either surface to surface or surface to air. The radar systems don't work because no money has been put into maintenance. Furthermore, the ship cannot sail at full power as the propellers are out of balance

The plant was obsolete. The compressors shown should have been replaced in the 1970's or 1980's. They dumped ore from the pit right into the furnace. Other mills had ovens that used waste heat captured from the furnace to preheat the ore. Also, if you look at films of this plant in the 1970's, the steel was moved about the grounds several times during rolling. By rail, which required a locomotive and rail cars. After each move, the steel had to reheated in an oven. This added extra costs that other mills didn't have.

I started with Bethlehem Steel right out of college in 1969 with a training program there in Pennsylvania teaching us about the complete process as well as the products and services of all the divisions. Mornings in lectures and afternoons to each operation. After weeks I went to the new Burns Harbor plant where I worked in the 160 in plate mill. At that time they were unloading South Korean hot roll coils across the small harbor destined for the auto industry parts manufacturers. I saw then that American steel was doomed.

I come from the UK and our steel industry went the same way. Japan, Germany & later on China designated their steel industries as "Strategic". This meant government subsidies in the form of cheap electricity etc. So the outcome was these countries could "dump" steel at low prices into the USA and UK and undercut the local steel suppliers. Once they had collapsed then they had the markets to themselves. I don't know whether our Governments are callous or just plain stupid. Those that were around at the time figured out what the game was, but no-one in power cared.

I just don't understand WHY those steel factories are abandoned now. Steel is still needed and used to modern-day construction. Is the U.S. getting our required steel from other countries?

My father and grandfather and I worked at Beth steel my name is William marable and my cousin was the president of union Ed bartee

As A child to my year's growing up near the City of Pittsburgh. I had hoped to woyin A Steel Mill. But by my graduation year, 1983. It wasn't going to be. The anger of many in and around the American Steel Factories tore the Strength and Spirit of all the Cites / and households which had worked for those Companies. Shutting down of each Mill was the death of more than just good paying jobs. But killing of hard working People who relied on how everything was tied to Each Mill,, with each Burroughs & neighborhoods. That came to the Rust belt poverty's in how, we haven't recovered. it saddens me when I drive around Pittsburgh, in how empty it feels, as the life bloodline was murdered by Big Business just only think of prophet, And not, The cities where familiar lived and worked. To be denied A future that killed by Japanese steel. God bless, Those who Worked and Made our Country what was it's distinctive pride in American Steel.

Rozville, love it. ROSE VILLE

Great video.!

If you want this back, the US will have to start a war!! Its a real heavy pollution maker also with coke plants. Chemical plants is another! Dont complain when you have CANCER 4:24 if you want a job at one of these plants!! these plants killed lots of workers and their families too! For uneducated workers it was a gold mine! Thank you President Richard NIxon for going off the gold standard! The country has been going down the tubes ever since!! You money isnt worth much today, in germany their marc's were sovworthless they use the paper in the bathroom to wipe with!! Ours is getting there!! A FIAT money SYSTEM!

They’re not allowed to say “The Union”. Unions are like cancer. When they take over, all efficiency ends. Union bosses decide everything: who does which job, which products gets made, who gets paid how much, and who gets promoted. It’s all political. Outcomes don’t matter. The worst people run the factory, and nobody gets fired. You end up with millions of organized assholes; with no concern for price or quality. They just create an easy life for themselves, and screw the taxpayers. Unions are government-sponsored Mafia.

Nice video. The Tobyhanna tower was closed in 1958. The station is open weekends 12-4pm.

Steel rails not rail ties

Back in the older days we built wooden ships and iron men. Now we build iron ships and wooden men. What happen to those iron men. All we hear is crying. 😅

The railroad bridge that is featured here was part of the Lehigh & Hudson River Railroad. The rails were removed in 1986. The larger concrete bridge dates to the original Warren Railroad built by John I. Blair. That line later became part of the Lackawanna Railroad and Erie-Lackawanna Railroad. The tracks were abandoned in 1970 and the rails removed soon after.

EAF technology wasn't fully developed and used widespread in steel mills until the late 60's and 70's, giving rise to minimills. The rebuilding of German and Japanese mills involved blast furnaces and conventional integrated steelmaking. Bethlehem Steel was so insular and conservative that it was the last integrated producer to embrace BOF technology, clinging to open hearth furnaces to convert iron to steel long after most of her competitors built BOF's. My dad worked in purchasing at their main office in Bethlehem from 1951 to 1968, and often lamented at Beth Steel's reluctance to embrace new technology. They hired enginheers directly from Lehigh University, which they supported, and only promoted from within, people who were indoctrinated in how they do business, discouraging innovations not developed by their own Homer Laboratory. My family worked at Bethlehem 3 generations, starting in 1901 with my great grandfather. When it closed it felt like the death of a family member, but no funeral to attend.

My left ear enjoyed this video

You ignored another reason for the failure; labor unions who demanded high costs fot the workers..

Rode my motorcycle through it back in the early 1980s. There’s a small room in the middle. Very creepy.

The hydroelectric plant is further downstream of the spillway you show. It was in full operation until the 2015 flood. You can see the powerhouse by going behind the State Museum.

I renovated the hydro plant the year before the flood. In 2015, spent 8 days and nights working to secure the breach and restore water to the city. Wild time!

Interesting vid.I love these type of vids,Very well done!

After the LNE ceased operations on Oct 31, 1961, the NYSW Hainesburg track did stay operational through late 1962 servicing a few local customers in Blairstown and Stillwater NJ …. Not quite sure of the date, but believe Dec 1962 this was out of service and the NYSW tracks were pulled either late Dec 1962 or Jan 1963 to Franklin NJ area.

Failed in part due to GREED by owners and GREED of Unions. Plus cheaper Japanese steel.

Hi was in Columbia in November 2023 and walked the canal. I'm from Ireland and didn't know the history of the canal, and the Irish connection until now. Was very close to the memorial but didn't actually see it, and would have loved to have got a photograph beside it. Thank you for sharing the story of the canal.

The draft is given in dm. So it is 2.6m.

Nice work ❤

Those falls were a lot wider a bunch of years back, the guy who bought the mill house actually knocked some of the falls out and made it a lot narrower. We used to jump off the cliffs a little bit upstream of the Falls. My old stomping grounds caught a lot of trout in that river and smallmouth.
