    1943! When you consider we were deeply involved in both the war in Europe and the Pacific, coal mining was an essential war industry, but was mostly done by boys and older men. Able bodied men between 21 and 45 were drafted. Men 18 to 20 often joined up for service. Teen boys and 50 year old men dug that shaft, poured that concrete and mined that essential coal to defeat the axis powers of WWII. Hard work! Brave men. Rough country then.
    Good video, thanks. I know the area well.

    Enjoyed every minute of this video ....Being raised in southern timber country I knew nothing about coal mining . I am learning so much and find it fascinating the way you piece the story together from the clues that were left behind. ..and mysteries to ponder . Seeing the beaver "cut ' tree, the dynamite shack built with 2 layers of blocks., abandoned rails and poison water ...going in with you behind those awesome metal doors . I loved it all . So glad you and Cliff took us along on this explore . ...loved it !

    Loved the video Jay and Cliff. Jay, I share your love of trains and coal mines. Interesting story, my grandmother heated with coal up until the late 1960's. I remember hating that as a kid as you couldn't really control the temperature in the house very well. To me as a youngster, the house was always far too warm and then got cold at night until the furnace was re-stoked. Although we had a bunch of local coal available, she never bought it. She always insisted on "Pennsylvania anthracite coal". She always said it didn't smell like rotten eggs like Illinois coal did. Thanks for the video, and there were people in Illinois that had to have "Pennsylvania anthracite coal". I remember that it was more expensive, but in the case of my grandmother...she would gladly pay for it. I wish she was still alive, she would have loved this video....and then ordered another load of "Pennsylvania anthracite coal"!

      Jon Symmonds very interesting story re life with your Grandma. I often wondered as a child the price and efficiency of using coal. We had a coal stove in our basement, but never got to use it. Someone came in and removed it without telling me. One of the disadvantages of living back east. . . Good things go missing or become damaged! Really enjoyed your comment to JP & Cliff. Write back if you can re coal. Great New Year to you. 🥂. ⛏🙂

    I believe you found the Maysville Colliery. The Pennsylvania RR had a short branch running along the road just to the south of the site, that ran to the Scott Colliery in nearby Kulpmont.
    The ties you found were part of the loading spur that connected to the PRR branch at both ends (there are even rail cars visible on it in the '58 or '59 image).

That acid run-off is probably in the ground water. I agree with you that the concert building probably stored some blasting materials. It looked to me that it was double bricked. I couldn't really get a good look. 👍🏽

    I like the way you explore. When I can't get out there myself I feel like I'm right there with you. I ponder similiar ideas as you did with the tracks. Regarding mines...I back you 100%...please do not enter on your own. Don't mess with any mine if you have no experience. I have some experience with old 1950's gold mines in the northern sierra nevada mtns. I was fortunate to talk to some of those old codgers in the 1970's.

    Interesting location. I always recommend to anyone never go exploring alone no matter where you go. Always bring another person. 👍

    Every week when I'd go to the auto auctions in Mechanicsburg and York, PA I would see an old steam shovel right along 81 and I seem to recall there being a strip mine and various culm banks in the same general area. Maybe it was in that same area you're in now as I swear I heard traffic from a major roadway in an earlier part of the video (and more truck/traffic noise around 31:39 or so). Also lol @ Cliff with the ol' Dukes Of Hazzard climbing skills around 29:07, climbing out of the mine like the Duke boys would climb INTO the General Lee.

      81 is miles away. This is closer to route 61

      @@JPVideos81 So then in the vicinity of Centralia and the former location of the Schuylkill Mall then? Wasn't that one tipple that you and Cliff visited along 61 somewhere too? I just remember seeing the shovel along a bunch of trees on the right hand side of 81 south and don't really remember the exact location.

    This place is so sweet. I would love to find an old mine to explore. The beavers really took a toll on those tree's You took some really nice shots. There is alot of things still left over there.

    if you want to know if it is regular gauge or narrow gauge just messaure the holes where the spikes went in and that should tell you which gauge it was
