The Susquehanna River carves a deep valley through the center of this 1940s landscape, serving as the corridor for the Pennsylvania RR and the Delaware Lackawanna and Western RR. Parallel to the river's northern bank lies the Pennsylvania Canal (Abandoned), a relic of earlier transportation history. The valley is anchored by Nanticoke and West Nanticoke, while heavy industry and mining activity are suggested by the concentrated settlements of Glen Lyon, Wanamie, and Alden to the south.
