About this map

Industrial rail corridors and deep-valley coal operations define this 1940s landscape in Elk County. The Clarion River and West Creek anchor the northern settlements of Johnsonburg and St. Marys, where the Pennsylvania and Baltimore and Ohio railroads converge to support the region's manufacturing and timber heritage. To the south, the topography is dominated by the extraction economy of the Toby Mine and Kyler Mine, alongside small mining communities like Dagus Mines and Byrnedale.
