Unplanned Video... I Didn't Expect There to be So Much!

- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- Sometimes things just present themselves and make for an unplanned video. I returned to an area that I visited back in 2018, except then, I explored underground. Fast forward 6yrs later and I was driving by the area and was curious how it looks today. Little did I know that there was so much above ground to be seen. What I expected to be a 10-15min visit turned out to be over an hour long. I invite you to come along with me to see what new things I discovered just above an area that I previously explored.

I'm glad I was able to explore this are both above & below. Do you think that chamber room was used for something else?
Hey Jay!
I enjoyed this great adventure!!! I love learning new things and enjoy learning them from your adventures 💙💙
Thank you Jay!!!
Great photos especially Nature's Carpet 💙💙
God bless you, keep you healthy and safe 🙏🙏🙏
Much love ❤️
I agree with your explanation.
The clear and white glass round pieces you found are the insides of old canning jar lids.
Cool site!
Sorry I just repeated the same thing. I hate when people to that...I should have read the comments better.😅
And there's a couple of the metal lids in the background there where he picks up the seals.
I like it when multiple people have the same information. It many times confirms what an item is. 😸👍@@judifoster8
I got my grandsons watching your videos. My 12 yr old said grandma he talks softly and doesn't say bad words. We're from central Saskatchewan, but love watching all your adventures.
Love your comment about the bad words. You're right! It isn't necessary to use the "F" word several times in every sentence. I can no longer watch movies, etc. at home with the wife, grandchild, etc. Ahhh, progressive America! Ain't it grand?
That's one of the many things I love about his videos. They're family friendly.
Absolutely! 😊 you don't need to use "colorful" language to be colorful!!
One of the things I like too is no cussing.
It boggles my mind how much labor it took to construct all of the facilities that you explore. It’s just incredible.
At 31:23, we used to explore that building in the blue circle in about 1989. You can also see a 200 foot high smokestack. The breaker building was only about 40 feet high when we were there. We would climb up (about 8 feet of metal steps were torched out) to what we thought was the roof at that time. I have this on videotape but I can't find it. The smokestack was imploded in 1993 and all of what JP is showing at this timestamp is gone now.
Hi Jay! Another great video, some of the great ones are the unplanned ones! At 11:20, I think there was a generator house there and those conduit pipes were for wires to supply electricity to different areas of the property. The larger pipes were for larger wires to carry more amperage to equipment. At 14:30, I saw zinc canning lids, which were used by people back in the day for canning vegetables, meats, etc. The lids had glass seals inside them, they were the round glass objects you handled that even had the word 'seal' formed into them. Overall, I really like this video, exploring old sites like this and wondering what everything was or could have been. It would be neat knowing what that chamber room was for. Wouldn't it be great if someone were around that worked there at one time and was able to join you to maybe add some insight as to what some of those things were? Thanks for taking us along!
That could be a good possibility for the conduit pipes. I'd love the chance to speak with an old timer who worked here. Maybe one day.
Hello there Jp video....I just wanted to say i missed your videos. And to say welcome back on UA-cam....beware of sink holes...because it caused by open mines that are under ground
Ive been back since the end of January. Thanks for checking this one out.
Me, on a Friday night, "A new jpvideos video 🤩!!!" Thanks to you, I have a life 😂😂
Haha
It's amazing how fast nature takes back the land. When seeing how big of a mining operation it was.
I know. On 2014 Google Earth, you can just barely see anything and you have to know where to look.
Love how you explore the unknown with no fear ❤😊😊
I try to not let my fears stop me from what I enjoy. Appreciate you watching 💙
Hi Jay, you're very close to the Eddy Tunnel opening. I don't remember if you ever went to that site? I haven't been there in about 10 years. I'm curious if anyone cut the gate on that opening yet. I believe the UGM boys photographed it when it was accessible. That was gated off in the mid-2000s.
All of these areas were famous for illegal dumping, which probably explains the glass lids, etc.
The smoke stack that's visible in the photos we used to climb to the top of when we were skipping school. At that time the big building next to it was the only one still standing, that was the breaker. Both were demolished in the 90s. The stack was detonated, leaving tons of bricks. A lot of them in good shape that I brought to my mother for her garden, and are still there.
I explored an area a couple years ago off Underwood road down by the dog kennels. Is this in the same area ? The hard part down there is to find a place to legally park
I'm familiar with that tunnel and have seen it, but have not entered due to reports of the top being very unstable.
@@adambudney6757 Kind of but not quite. Where I'm talking about is on Marshwood Rd (which hooks up to Underwood down at the bottom) Across from Keystone Propane at the very beginning of that pole line road.
@@JPVideos81 If it's accessible, yeah it doesn't go very far due to the ceiling collapse which I'm guessing was from when they built they Casey. I thought you'd be interested in the outside of it. I was in it before they built the Casey and it went quite a distance, and then again right before they gated it off. There are still one or two openings nearby that haven't been gated off yet. One really goes nowhere and the other you can still get into and poke around for a distance but eventually hit a ceiling collapse from the Casey construction. Before they built the highway you were able to take that and come out right by the landfill.
@@tiffanyshanley1419 I know where it is , the hardest part seems is parking. It’s all industrial and I don’t want my car towed . I can always park on the pole line . Any ideas where I can park ?
Always love when you explore old ruins ..Hard to wrap my brain around the huge outfit that was there once upon a time ..Thank you for including the old photos .. You took some awesome photos ...loved the nature's carpet shots , old structures , and artifacts collected ..fun to see the old glass canning jar lids.. . Enjoyed every minute ...another fun adventure . 👍💙
I'm wishing I came back sooner, but I didn't think all of that would be out there. Glad I was able to bring you along as well.
hi there im a old coal miner in Australia pls take my advise NEVER go into old tunnels they could have CO2 in it if you walk into it you never come out and it hits fast you pass 0ut and die quick
That's likely the site where my grandfather worked as a breaker boy. I'd estimate it was in the 30s, since he guarded the Pentagon in WW2. I remember when I was a kid in the 70s-80s, he was receiving Black Lung benefits(which were not much).
At 35:00, I say that all the time! Usually it's 3x longer...
It feels like a time capsule of sorts. Love your curiosity in your explorations that compels you to look further, go further, and then you find so much more to piece together your puzzle of the past. Awesome video! Also, I like the smiley face behind you (to your right, our left) as you wrap up the video. Excellent photo montage, too! Thanks for bringing us along!🙂💙
😊
Hey JP 👋, great return site video. There was some interesting stuff there. Thanks for sharing 👍
The long underground chamber to me is definitely part of a silt chamber of sorts. My knowledge of Coalinga operations is lesser than yours. Definitely a cool and interesting site to explore and speculate. Missouri and Illinois has its share of old and abondoned coal mines. O e in particular is located in Bonne Terre, Missouri. It has very cool tours of a mine that goes back to the earl 19th Century. It has both a walking and a pontoon boat tour. And since it's closure in the 1970s has flooded with lots of mineral rich water. It's also used as a certification site for divers. I've been there several times and am fascinated as we explored all the different shafts as they were dug out over the years of its operation. It's nothing in comparison to the mine tours you took us on in past videos. That Anthracite Coal is some impressive stuff that we don't have! As always Jay, Shirley and I love your channel. She sees how excited I get and has grown to like your content. You've taken us to places we never imagined. Abondoned houses, theme parks caves mines railroads bridges etc. Thank you for sharing this with us! Keep up the good work. And look forward to seeing you in the next video!
Thanks so much my friend 😊💙
The white and clear glass round things are seals for old Ball and Atlase ( Mason)canning jars. I think I saw an old Ball zinc lid for them too.
Great video, JP. i agree with the chutes. Their had to be levers to operate them, and coal cars traveled through the underground sector. I think it was transported out to another area.
I liked seeing the inside of the chutes, look like the Material.poured in from the top, into the inclosed area.
Thanks for your comment and for watching
Another great explore I enjoy your outings and explores very much I like how you put in pictures of how it looked back in the day thanks again .
Good evening mate Holy crap your Camera is amazingly crisp in low light and just in general it's so good,.
What an interesting place to find I love how much history is in your area, and it's always exciting finding even more then you realized was around.
Beautifully filmed mate and edited.
Have a blessed weekend.
I'm enjoying the quality as well. Appreciate you stopping by to watch.
@JPVideos81 +Its definitely impressive mate 😁, your welcome it's Always an enjoyable experience.
I recognized that “WVB co” brick! There was one with the same stamp in another video you did a couple weeks ago! I went down a rabbit hole looking up the origins of the initials on bricks and interesting the bricks found in two locations used the same brick company.. maybe they were built by the same companies?
Hi Jay. Awesome video. Very interesting. Hope you are doing great & staying safe on your adventures.
😊
Great explore. I’m so glad you decided to film it. Thank you JP.
This was a great video JP. I love watching and learning about the old mines! TYFS! 👍🥰❤️
Another great trip lots to see & enjoy. Loved the lids, my grandmother had some. Very impressive trip.
Awesome place JP! Really cool finds there! Love the old photos showing how it used to look! Thanks for bringing us along!👍
JP love railroads, rail trails, mines explorations
I wish you can find an old miner, train engeneer to tell stories of those days, wonder if there is any 100 yr old left there in PA to bring along to those places and adventure... maybe a relative that came along when they were kids to those places ..💙😊
That area is awesome i like the history of it trying to find out what it uses to be. Love you're videos and your photos
I enjoy that as well and showing what remains from the past.
That's a famous mine. I remember the photos of the maintenance area on Underground Miners website years ago. Another youtuber had mentioned it was no longer accessible. Interesting to learn it was the earth not man finally sealing it up.
It was one of the more famous one's in the area and I'm glad I was able to document it when I did.
The other youtuber was correct. The manway with the cage over it was filled in with gravel. And the big subsidence next to it was intentionally filled with stone and debris. This happend in May of 2021.
The older I get I love history and learning about the past ....this was AWESOME....I loved every minute of it so much to see here so many cool things !! Great video as alway's I loved the pictures at the end also !! 👍👍
I'm the same. History didnt interest me much in school, but I love learning about places like this.
Great video thanks for sharing 😎
This is so interesting, and the history is wonderful! What an awesome find and a great exploration! It's so cool that someone left the artifacts that they found, and I agree it looks like an archeological dig site and there are actually some cool items. The chamber is so fascinating, I am thinking that maybe there are some buried tracks in there that the coal cars traveled on and like you said, was either used for coal or storage for silt for the boiler house. Your photos are excellent, always love to see beautiful nature's carpet too. Great video JP, thank you! 💙
I think it's one of the rare times I've seen findings laid out that someone found and a dig site is exactly what it seemed like.
For the series of pipes you were looking at 11:19, and the position of the building you identified where you thought you were in relation to the Rock Slope along with the video snippet of the maintenance room underground, I would hazard a guess that those pipes are a manifold associated with an air compressor sending compressed air to be used in the workshop belowground. Mines typically used a lot of compressed air tools. The building may have held the compressed air plant for the mine. Just my guess based on what you were showing.
Good possibility. Thanks for sharing.
It would be nice if someone who worked there would do a video with you about it
Those “archeological” finds on top of the wall are AWESOME!
That underground chamber is so interesting as well
It was a nice bonus find and makes you wonder what stories they may hold. Good hearing from ya
@@JPVideos81 they do!
Thanks. Have a nice weekend JP! 😄
It is awesome that you went down in those mines and documented them as best you could while you could!Now I want to view that exploration again!Can you share the title of that one please?
ua-cam.com/video/U09rajsfdDI/v-deo.htmlsi=Qyo3wl1cj3MPBFXJ
Great adventure. Until the next time 💙💙💙 did you smile for the trail camera 😂
Haha
Very good explore thanks for sharing with us ! 😎😎
My pleasure
I love what you do brother, I lived in pittston Pa for 3 years and learned a lot from your trips, thankyou
Appreciate you watching
So awsome your adventures continue amaze me. Thanks for taking me along
J, my coal mining knowledge is very limited. My ancestors were long dead of black lung before I came along. Your knowledge far surpasses mine. What you found is really neat. Thanks for having a mining ignorant southerner tag along.😊
I'm still learning as well and love learning about our past.
I like the rail with the shackle bolted thru it. That might have had a roped tied to it and was used to signal something ?
Neat. Make a cool door knocker. LOL. Fun stuff up there in PA, loads of history.
Do you have a souvenir collection from all your adventures ? I would have taken the glass seal things, and the Brick marked WVCO ... neat stuff. I'm sure you have some RR spikes, cause you are a RR nut like me.
I rarely take anything, but I do have some spikes and a handful of other related things.
Excellent video! Ranks with your finest. Thanks for bringing me along.
I really like this. I've been so busy I haven't had a lot of watch time lately. I live around areas like this in Upstate New York if you're ever looking for more cool places to look at I would love to look at some stuff that I know about areas that I know of but I'm chicken to go by myself.
Just from speculation of those openings (chutes), and the debris left inside, my thoughts are that it was to drop unusable waste materils into rail cars ( which would fit perfectly iside that corridor) and then carried away maybe to a dump site or fill area. I don't think it was for sorting since all the debris looks the same.
Waste was my first thought so that could be true.
Cool I like the natures carpet to.
Not sure when you actually filmed this but I believe this area was clear cut recently? At least beyond the storage unit facility that huge area over to the 4 lane looks barren of vegetation, trees, etc. on Google maps. Perfect place for me to receive cat food orders, Amazon packages, or sneakers sent to me! Whenever I order pet food it comes from the Chewy warehouse in Ashley next to the old Huber Breaker site!
I did see the clear cut area, but thats a little ways up/down the road from here. This was filmed very recent.
Another outstanding video!!!! Thanks for sharing ❤.
My pleasure allen
I just discovered your video, and I enjoyed it. Who owns the property now? Is this a park or preserve? The round glass discs you found are tops from canning jars. (e.g.: Atlas or Mason Jars)
It's near an ever-growing industrial park and at some point this land will be developed.
If not for the industrial park, I am most sure all the rubble (the breaker, about 6 buildings and the smokestack) would still be there...
Is there a link to the video underground from the beginning of the video ? (Edit found it !)
Very interesting video!! Great job!!💙
Thank you!
Wow, that was a pleasant unexpectant find. If you go back there, maybe bring the drone. Might get a better idea of where and what things were from the air plus it would be cool to see. Love you showing the map and old pictures. I'm not so sure that trash is from someone staying there. Looks more like an animal (bear, coyote, or ?) did that. If you look there's a garbage bag with stuff pulled out of it by where the noodle package is and the egg carton is partially ripped. Also noodles aren't usually something someone sheltering there would have. Going by the purple thing and the leaves and sticks lodged in the cement chunks I'm going to say water came through there causing stuff to get lodged. Maybe some garbage bags did too and something drug them in or they got washed inside. Same with the purple hose? by the smiley face. Hard to say for sure. Anyway, I think it was used like you said and there's probably tracks or a rail bed under there. Thanks for the fun explore.
Really interesting site, thank you for sharing!!!
Thanks!
Appreciate your donation, thanks
Great video
It’d be amazing if you could track down the original Orris Coal co in Carnegie, PA. I have the original pictures of the coal trucks and they still have wooden spoked wheels, so it must’ve been roughly after Mansfield became Carnegie,I’m just guessing, but it was founded by my mom’s dad’s side in the way way back…
Atlas EDJ seal was for mason or ball type jars
wow loved it . ❤❤ stay safe love ya
💙
Nice to see another interesting adventure. 😁
Those shoes with the spikes on them I believe those are golf shoes and narrow gauge steel those are called i-beams
Excellent video.
Of all the ruins I know of, this is the only one with a "roof".
Thanks I enjoyed watching awesome video
Thank You
Bravo fun stuff
Is this in Pennsylvania?
Yes
Love this!
It’s almost as scary as the Kennywood tunnel
Cool video of sorts.
Is this the place where you removed the video because you didn't know it was a mine?
Mason jar lids
Thanks for letting me know
Those glass disks are canning jar lids . . .
Just think if you missed that stuff imagine all the other stuff you missed at other places !
Looks like those concrete pads were floor of brick buildings from long ago.
Christmas gifts lol
Crawling around in abandoned open mines is idiotic and suicidal behavior.
didn't expect there to be so much NOTHING, its always NOTHING, you would be a good hire with those oak island guys
I love your videos please never stop
Glad I found you last year because I wouldn't be able to watch your cave videos. >.< I don't like videos of any cave exploration.
Good afternoon..new followers..Is there away we can get in touch..I would like to go on a adventure with you..Please let's talk..
Just be carefull
