A quick trip to downtown with some past and present pictures
Wow! That was a great video history of Weirton Steel. Thanks for sharing! I sold couplings and spindles for Zurn and Kop-Flex to the mills in Pittsburgh and the Ohio Valley.
So they are building a NU-COR steel mill in Mason county, West Virginia, right in the farming country, taking half the county over….makes zero sense!
That's a very good video. Thankyou kindly.
I like Downtown Hound
Even in black-and-white you could see the pollution! That's so many good memories there!
Thanks for sharing! Great story of how great the Ohio Valley once was.
A man’s best friend and all .. Ooooh .. he looks like Fred Gassit from Australia , Yea mate , 👌 cool video.
Imagine buying a company for 200k. You can't even buy a house nice house for that now. I work at Cleveland Cliffs in Weirton and it's a good job probably the best in the area. There is hope. That video is really cool both of my grandfather's were steelworkers one in Weirton and one in Stubenville. I'm happy to be the third generation taking care of my family. God bless
Wow! Incredible, up close, video footage of the soaking pits (most replaced today by the continuous caster process) and rolling mills in operation. I can almost feel the intense heat radiating off those glowing hot ingots. Thanks for sharing!
Didn't Great Lakes Steel operate the first basic oxygen furnaces in the United States?
No, McClouth Steel which was about 5 miles south used the BOFs.

@@g1sokool669 Thanks for setting the record straight!
What happened to Philips? I'm assuming he died.
Brought back many good memories of our blooming mill at Inland Steel.
2009...Weirton What happened here?
If Ernest Weir was alive today to see what's left of his mill now.
If we could only go back in time!!!! What the past has so, so much to teach us. The state of this country today, and it's people (Not All, Thankfully) are in such a bad state morally, it's absolutely frightening. God Bless America!!!!!
I'm sure a lot of "mini-mills" in the United States contributed to the downfall of this once large, integrated, steel mill empire.

Nice cover photo. Where did you get it?
I'm certain there are still things being used today from steel forged at Weirton Steel. Thanks to all the hard working people who worked there.
This was in my backyard until they blew it up and blanketed my neighborhood with black sutt and pieces of rubber
The only thing running now is the pickler
I stood on one of those same hills and watched them destroy so much history when they demolished the basic oxygen plant
Shameful what the company and I am including the union let happen to a viable steel mill! Sold all the workers down the river to line their golden parachutes.
The writing was on the wall when National sold it to the employees!! They saddled Weirton with Harvey Sperry and Herb Elish from the very beginning. National didn’t want them to succeed and made certain they didn’t with those two ass hats running the show
The mill it's self is scrap steel now.
Was layed off in '79 and left town...
I’m from Weirton
What are things like in town now?
@@67Lucky67 it's really not a bad place to live. The cost of living here is very reasonable. There's not to much to do though. It's nice cuz it's only 30 min drive to Pittsburgh. The mill is all gone. This video is definitely a thing of the past..
@@joechiodi5529 Thanks for the input. Its sad to see American industries sold for scrap.
@@67Lucky67 it really is and the people who were hired to demolish parts of it could care less about the community
Shout out from Chester!
I lived right across the river back in the early eighties when the employees were trying to acquire and operate the mill. I wonder if they made a go of it.
d e austin No, the employee ownership was the beginning of the end. A couple companies owned it. Now it's just a tin mill owned by Arcelor Mittal. The steel mill is being torn down now. The tin mill was recently hiring, they need 30 workers. They didn't find any.
@@erichuff6945 where did they advertise that they were hiring? Ive been to every local employmentvoffice n never heard of them hiring, as I would have been first in line.
Brent Arbogast it's a union job you go to the steel workers union pay your dues, join the union and apply. The way it has been done for almost 100 years.
The employees ran it but they still were powerless to stop the board of directors from selling it.
Very nice.
it's too bad people only associate steubenville with rape when there's so many other tragedies to feel nostalgic about, like floods and drug addiction
Also had a serial killer, gangster killings ,bombings, brothels and a few other notable things
@BUTTHOLASAURUS read it twice good book .the moonlight mill murders is interesting too
@@aaronmcconnell7358 And tremendous unemployment.
@@richarddagostino1379 yes true but what I was speaking about was the early 1900's when the black hand and the mob was controlling the city
@@richarddagostino1379 So Dino was right , read a few books & he didn’t seem to luv it that much
As someone from out of town (Buffalo) who has been interested in Weirton for quite sometime I wanted to thank yu for posting the videos you’ve posted. Kick ass Friday night watching Weirton steel movies. The ESOP one was pretty sad knowing the outcome in the end. I used to come photograph Steubenville, Mingo and Weirton on a pretty frequent basis.
I’m from Weirton.. It’s sad that all gone now. Those are mostly all abandoned buildings now. Their just now tearing down the iconic b.o.p building.
Sad that it's all gone now.
Ernest Weir and Tommy Millsop have got to be spinning in their graves over what became of their mill.
Ernest Weir and Thomas Milsop have to be spinning in their graves at what's happening to the mill and the city.
Now even this "mill of the future" is becoming a thing of the past. They're tearing the BOP down, along with the remainder of the hot end of the mill. The tin mill will be all that's left.
Tin mill gone now 😢
Lovely to hear Dean Martin's mother's voice. She sounds like a nice lady.
You are right there was no safety equipment back then.thats what made the men so hard working back then Steel men so awesome 👏 family you might say.
Not much in safety gear back then! AWESOME VIDEO!!
Fantastic video - Thanks so much for sharing!!!!!
