About this map

Conrail rail lines and high mountain ridges define this corridor of the Pennsylvania coal region during the mid-twentieth century. The complex geography of the anthracite fields is visible in the proximity of industrial sites like Primrose Mine to clustered residential patches such as Delano, Park Place, and Trenton. Large-scale infrastructure projects are evident in the Mahanoy Tunnel Sta and various reservoirs including Blue Head Res and Lofty Res, which provided essential water for both industrial operations and the growing population centers in Mahanoy and Delano townships.
