About this map

Industrial nodes and coal-mining hamlets define the landscape of Elk County during the early 1940s. The regional economy is anchored by the crossing of major rail lines, including the Baltimore and Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Erie railroads, which serviced the heavy extraction operations at Dagus Mines, Kyler Mine, and Toby Mine. These corridors connect significant population centers like St. Marys and Ridgway to smaller settlements such as Dagusca-honda and Byrnedale.
