Minersville and Tremont anchor a landscape defined by the anthracite coal industry and the complex rail network required to move it. Surveyed in 1889, this map illustrates the dense concentration of infrastructure in the Sharp Mountain and Mine Hill regions, where numerous railroad branches like the Lorberry Branch P. & R. R. R. and the Good Spring Branch P. & R. R. R. penetrate deep into the valleys. These lines connect industrial outposts like New Mines and Lorberry Junction to larger hubs.
