Bly's Tour of the Machine Shop

Join Rivers of Steel for a virtual visit to W.A. Young & Sons Foundry and Machine Shop. Nestled in the historic district of Rices Landing, Greene County, Pennsylvania, the Machine Shop is an astonishing industrial treasure. Built in 1900, the shop produced parts for steamboats, coal mines, railroads, and supported local small businesses. When it closed in 1965, the building was locked and all of its tools and equipment were left in place-perfectly preserving its line shaft driven, 25-machine network for future generations.
