1959 Map of Penfield

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Moshannon State Forest dominates this landscape in the late 1950s, a rugged expanse where the industrial footprint of extractive industries meets large-scale conservation efforts. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad follows the valley floor through Penfield, serving as the primary corridor for local commerce alongside Bennett Branch. This valley is a hub of activity, with numerous Strip Mines and quarries dotting the hillsides, signaling the region's heavy reliance on coal and stone production.
