1943 Map of Shamokin
USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
Danville and Riverside sit at the strategic bend of the North Branch Susquehanna River, where several major rail lines including the Reading and Lackawanna converged during the early 1940s. The landscape reflects a transition from the agricultural valleys of Rockefeller and Shamokin townships to the heavy industrial activity concentrated in the coal-rich south. The mining footprint is unmistakable at the Trevorton Colliery and the surrounding rail spurs that served the anthracite region.
