Looking north up Main Street at the intersection of Main, County Road, and Pennsylvania Avenue - looks like sometime in the '50s. Those blue skies are someone's pipedream.

This is an old one. This is actually a 'shot' of the old 10" & 16" Hot Mill end of the Strip Steel area of WSX. No railyards yet, and no Cold Mill Bldg. Looks like a farm or house, right center, where the 54" SS Machine Shop Bldg. now stands.

An old shot of North Weirton-NO Weirton Steel yet. The area in the foreground is where the Blast Furnaces and open Hearth were later built. Maybe part of the old Ferguson Farm?

Pennsylvania RR Station - somewhere in Weirton once upon a  time.
Update...this is the building that Weirton Steel used as their Safety Store. It's no longer there.
