Middle & Southern Field Mines

Tower City, Mt. Carmel, Shenandoah, and the surrounding areas. NOTE: Do Not attempt to locate abandon mines. I have had permission to enter many of these. Also, some photos make it seem like I am deep inside, when it's just camera tricks. **Stay out, stay alive.** Want to check out some mine fires?

  • This massive breaker was constructed in 1931. It was capable of producing over 12,000 tons of coal each day. To get an idea of how large this is, a tri-axle truck can carry about 25 tons. In 1963 the breaker closed.
