1893 Map of Mahanoy

USGS Topo · Published 1940

About this map

Industrial expansion and rail infrastructure dominate this anthracite region landscape, where the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad and Lehigh Valley Railroad compete for access to the coal fields. The terrain is defined by parallel ridges like McAuley Mountain and Spring Mountain, forcing a dense network of junctions and branches. Small company towns and junctions such as Delano Junction and Silver Brook Junction serve as the primary nodes of human activity between the ridges.
