It’s time for some more awesome historical P&S photos! Let’s look at some of the old coal mines and loaders of the Allegheny River Mining Company and other historical photos from long ago.

I’ve lost track of who sent some of these, if you recognize any as your photos let me know, thanks!

Take a look at the Confier mine!

Now we go to the Chickasaw Mine.
