USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
The Youghiogheny River carves a deep, winding course through this mid-century landscape, framing a region defined by industrial extraction and historic settlement. Heavy industry is visible through the numerous Strip Mines and a prominent Mine Dump near Nellie. The river banks are busy with the competing lines of the Baltimore and Ohio RR and the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie RR, which serve coal-patch towns like Dickerson Run, Raineytown, and Adelaide.
