Ah someone beat me to the soap dispenser joke...Dang it. :D

Crimson Rain is right...that is EXACTLY it! You feel just like part of a family, and I have actually said that to my husband several times. :) I do wonder what was on that wall...how odd...and that COLOR. Eeek!

Anyone need a BOOT in the pants? Well...there ya go! Lots to go around. :D

Wow. They look like 2 different shoes...note how there is an extra eyelet on the top of the one behind the other one. Wow. This is fantastic. Workin in da mines...there were some really good songs that came out of this whole period too. :)

LOL @ Crimson Rain....he would probably be seen eating an apple while setting up his tripod and cleaning the lenses on his cameras. :D There ya go...gotta giggle some more now lol!

I love how the teeth are in sharp focus and the rest of it is kind of blurred out!!!

Wanderer--yes and it has been for some time now. We all have either gas heat or electric heat here in this part of PA anyhow...and we were BIG in the coal business at one time. :)

These look so very old.

Wow...the stories this machinery can tell...

All rusted and thrown into decay from disuse. :( How sad.

I too think that something was taken out of the building through that hole. :) It looks like a gaping maw...creeeeeepy.

Pennsylvania's Coal Country, huh? Guess where I live? HAHA...Northeast Pennsylvania, which was also a BIG part of the Coal era! Our old house was built for the miners and their families and our old house and the house next to it, and the house next to that all looked almost identical in appearance because they were "cookie cutter" houses for those families.

The house we are in now (other side of town) was also built during that time (50's I think?) so this whole area was very important to the coal production. :)

I would love to know exactly where in PA this is...I know they have a lot of breakers out by Pittsburgh. I am across the state from there, but we also have a large breaker just like this right here in Scranton. :)

YAY! I get to look at more pic-ee-tures! :D
