Steel making

Since steel manufacturing played a major role in the formation of the city I thought I should add a shot of one of the old mills.

 The Johnstown incline plane looked fantastic! I would love to take a ride on that. Your flood museum and memorial national park tip was interesting as well.

 Jim, fabulous little page. I especially like this incline plane. I have never heard about such form of transportation. The Johnstown brewing Company seems to be well worth a visit as well ... *winkygrin*

 Happy birthday, Jim. I was in your region yesterday, as we visited IUP. Beautiful foggy drive at 5:30am, but three hours from home... Have a wonderful day.
