About this map

Industrial coal culture and mountain geography converge in this 1971 study of the Somerset-Cambria county line. The borough of Windber and its neighbors Scalp Level and Paint are shown in significant detail, revealing the infrastructure of a region built on extraction, from a prominent mine dump to a web of rail connections including Conrail and several stretches of Old Railroad Grade. Institutional life is well-documented through a dense concentration of local landmarks such as SS Peter and Paul Ch and the Maple Grove Sch.
