Ty Casey for posting this.40 years now I have installed US pipe and tubing as a union pipefitter and welder and I am grateful for these men of iron!
Another great story. You've created a rolling history lesson. Thanks so much.
Hear, hear!!
OMG, that would be the perfect name for her travel tv show..."Rolling History".
The travel channel should be calling you. The editorial technique given to your videos are superb.
Totally agree.
Polla Bolla coming from TV I can assure you that call will never come. Tv producers like generic vanilla people who only say the nicest things.
AGREE
@@CaseyRoman
That damn sad. Ur really good. Who wants vanilla...... we want opinions and unique points of view.
@@CaseyRoman Here's a twist for you, Casey. Perhaps John and Peter of RV Geeks would be interested in featuring your travels and your particular vlogging style for a piece on their new show _The RVers_ on Discovery Channel and PBS. Just a thought.
When I read the title I was racking my brain trying to remember a blast furnace in the movie "Carrie"
Carl Rice LoL!!
Carl Rice
Me too 😄
I must say, I really like your short documentaries. It's like taking a step into a piece of history school books never told. I love it. Thank you.
WOW @Casey Roman! Thx for the beautiful unknown history lesson. I cannot wait for your next exploration.
Wow as usual, Now that you're in PA I would love you to go to the Amish community and do your thing. Thanks for sharing.
Seeing some of the Amish communities in PA sounds like a wonderful idea.
@@paulamay8718 Then back to Ohio to their Amish so we can compare.
Sexy Amish, community next? Amish, Amish!" Please...... (Echo)
A piece by Casey on the Pennsylvania Amish would, no doubt, be a•maz•ing!
Casey, take it from me, you'd love it! It's just your kind of thing. You'd want to spend more than one day with them, though.
I love how you give a voice to the lost stories of the forgotten communities that build our wonderful nation.
Keep up the GOOD WORK Pretty lady;)
I feel like I am watching a NETWORK documentary. Keep up the great work. Great followup on the history of each of your films.
EMU I really appreciate that. Especially since the network I used to work for didn’t want these!
Remnants of a once great and powerful industrial Nation. thanks for taking us a long Casey.
Best Best Best .. Absolute best channel on UA-cam today. I just finished a trip up the Pacific Coastline from San Diego to Seattle, then checked out Seattle for 2 weeks. Did the Space Needle, Discovery Park, and all the tourist stuff, ran up the side of Mount Rainer (twice) and got a bumper sticker to prove it. Played golf at a couple of courses, and had the best gin martini ever at Gino's at Dash Point Pier on the Puget Sound .. and now I'm ready to head towards Glacier National Park and I so wish there were your videos for each of the towns in between so I could get the "take" or feel on a town that you get with each one. This channel is great and I really really appreciate your hard work, technical skill and artistic talent at story telling. So proud to watch this channel that you own just grow and grow, knowing it will become one of the best on UA-cam.
I came here several years ago and took a tour the guys that gave the tour where the most wonderful people I've ever met .They he's a complete history of the place we're very knowledgeable in steelmaking I found this place to be magical unbelievably quiet an absolutely huge. After this when on up to Bethlehem Pennsylvania and visited Bethlehem Steel it was a sight to behold as well !! I want to thank all the men and women who worked in the mills and help build our GREAT country !!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Casey, You are by far the BEST Story teller of all the vanners out there, You Rock , Can't wait for the next place and story to follow.. Thank You for sharing...
Just Ollie thank you ☺️
You amaze me. Your irreverence and eloquent snark dragged me in, but it is your talent and unique view of this country and it’s history that keeps me here. Bravo for a job exceptionally well done.
Good Morning, was hoping you would be on, who ever would have thought, that the rust belt would be on my travel list!!! Have a great week end. Be safe.
Another winner.. you give us such mini documentaries with all your videos.. Masterful storytelling paired with great cinematography.. truly amazing
Loved this. My grandpa was an iron worker for years. He'd tell crazy stories about the dangers.
#LiveYourPassion Once again, I love your narration and history along with humor. It's so refreshing !! ❤️ 🌞🚐🇺🇸
#FindYourFreedom
You're an excellent documentary maker. I lived as a child in the iron ore range of MN. This really connected those memories for me. Thank you!
Beautifully done, research, photography, writing and narration. You are the best there is for finding interesting content and professional presentation. Respect dear lady!
Thank you for sharing😀.. I could of kept watching at least an hour or 2 . I enjoy all your videos. My brain wants more 🤓
Another fantastic video Casey! I'm serious when I said in the last comment that you need to consider amalgamating all of these different historical snippets into a documentary and submitting it to PBS or the History Channel as an indie project. The other thing to remember, as I may have previously told you is HISTORY=HIS STORY, and "HE", whomever he may be is sticking to it. Truth, unfortunately, has no place in most history books today. Truth will be reliant upon the individual, such as yourself, to be told to future generations. Thanks again for another outstanding video.
I am w/ you Mary!
@@carlawalker4671 thank you. I imagine if more of Casey's subscribers encourage her, the more likely she might actually make that documentary!
I agree. I've found the shows that cover sites by state rather disappointing. I'd rather hear in-depth stories about sites, cultures, and industries than landmarks.
I'm speechless. Another fantastic video. I've told my granddaughter to start following you so she can learn the true history of our country. Thank you. I just want to give you a big hug. That's what grandpas do.
I humbly stand before you, in the wrong line with a half gallon of Walmart ice cream, declaring I`m not worthy. Another great vid .thank you.
I’m dying 🤣🤣🤣
Wow she knows what a man is an not a boy toy....this needs to put down in history.... great video 👍👍👍👍
Awesome piece Casey! I find your history pieces to be super fascinating and the humor keeps me coming.
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
Very informative and well done video. I am fascinated by the history of steel mills. I live near Bethlehem PA. were ther have simular tours.
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
Like stonemasons of ancient times we will never know their names but owe them all so so much. What a beautiful documentary.
you are a natural historian, things others dont see, you bring to life for the rest of us.....thanks darlin
So happy to have found your channel. The videos keep getting better and you always have the most interesting topics. Cant wait till I am on the road to see it in person. Hope you keep touring and doing videos.
Hello how’re you doing?
Whoa! Incredible photography/videography, writing and narration, in addition to post-production editing time, talent and tenacity. To this, she even adds a movie promo-quality soundtrack for dramatic effect. Well done, Casey. Thank you so much for the wonderful look into the Carrie Furnace. The context and color you add to the historical aspect of the facility is definitely part of your "secret sauce".
And, "Sexy Steel" had me chuckling aloud in my solitude. Only card-carrying bad asses need to apply, as they're the only men up to the challenge of giving as good as they get from the fiery red one!
Dang girl, you are getting SO GOOD at these!!! What an amazing story teller....
Me crying as I watch how good your videos are, Mis Casey.. I will be so jealous when a Network or Netflix finally hook you up for the steal!
Hi 👋 Great video! Heart ❤️ VanLife travels! Thank you for been my inspiration for making videos!
Wow! My dad worked on the freighters on The Great Lakes & my grandfather worked in the train yard in Ashtabula, he regulated the iron ore loading. I am very proud of their contribution to "build America". The Carrie Blast Furnace certainly looks interesting and hopefully I can visit soon. Thank you.
You are rapidly becoming a younger version of my all time favorite journalist/broadcaster. Living in the state of North Carolina must somehow instill an awareness uncommon among others. Keep up the good work.👍
Back when men were real M-E-N!!!! I love it!!!! I don't know how you do it, but your videos and the information you provide are always the best!! The places you visit make my heart sing. This is what America is all about. Thank you Casey!!
Vicki Boedges I really hope Sexy Steel never sees this video though 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Another homerun in Casey's Quest for Americana! You are simply amazing, girl! I come from an oilfield background and it too, was filled with rough and tough men, intrigue, danger and dirty deals that powered America into greatness. So many stories, so little time! This was the perfect Saturday afternoon break, thanks Casey 😍
Hello how’re you doing?
I continue to be impressed with the places your sharing and the quality of your presentations. Please, keep up the great work.
Spektakular.....yet again!!! Love how you see and share the world.
Another wonderful oration, I always smile when I notice a new post from Casey Roman :0)
My Dad worked in Carrie Furnace from 1945 to 1966. He walked down the hill to work from Munhall Pa.
You are absolutely awesome Casey !! The descriptions and humor pull me in every single time !!
beautifully done. I would imagine those that worked here and their descendants very proud to share this with others.
Hello how’re you doing?
Thank you again for the wonderful stories! I love how you are developing your channel. You are so good at what you do!
You are so good at this, Casey. 👍🏻👍🏻
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
We lived in Rankin, mid to late 50s, dad worked open hearth. We heard many awesome stories of the daily activities there. As well, an uncle, my grandfather, all worked there as well.
Love you videos!! Cool historical information...great job!
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
Very, very interesting. Thanks again. We love your videos. Keep them coming.
Casey: You are such an excellent storyteller providing us with insight otherwise forgotten.Its interesting to see how much of America is behind us and how spoiled we’ve become without understanding and respect for the sacrifice of our forefathers.
Keep it up take us to places that challenge us.
Travel Safe Peace
Love the history you should have your own show of what America’s old history of life look like. Another job well done.
Phyllis Avery thank you!!!
Interesting.......with humor. Love it! Thank you for a view of American history.
Fantastic documentary(visual & audio grabs you and makes you think!) * National Geographic needs you on their pay roll!
Emmy winning work ! Thank you.
Hey Casey, all I can say is just WOW & Thank you of course, safe travels...
Great video,I am from a steel town in England called Scunthorpe where there are the Famous 4 Queens blast furnaces,called Victoria Anne ,Mary and Bess name after 4 Queens of England.
, and luckily we are still making iron and steelJust ,and by the way I loved the video brought back so many memories as I worked at the Blast Furnaces for over 39 yrs.😊😊
Awesome video!!! Thank you, Casey! This is SO good!
Amazing work. I really liked the videography. Catching up on your latest videos today. Thanks for your great work.
By far one of my favorites you've made. Thanks Casey!
-Will
I agree they would have named the blast furnace Casey! Well written,still funny...am I dreamin?
Hello 👋how are you doing?
Bravo! Another excellent documentary. Great narration and loved the music choices too. Noticed the B&W to color transition on that one shot!😉
You are a terrific story teller ... I see why you were a reporter (facts, sensible, thoughtful, thorough, compassionate) ... nice job. 😎 I’m a fan
I LOVE your stories. This one was fantastic. Seems like there was a similar style of news program on TV many years ago. :)
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
You find the coolest places and give an award winning presentation in every video, well done, Casey!!
Interesting story and great photos! Thank you!
Casey every video you make is great. On this one you hit the ball out of the park. You are a shooting star in a dark night sky. Truly a beautiful thing to behold. Thankyou
Another interesting video Casey, you have a real passion for the history of this region, thanks for sharing, Hi from Ontario Canada
I just love Everything about your channel-can't wait to see where we're going next! Thank you & safe travels
Another great history lesson. Thank you!!
Thank you, Casey! Ive so enjoyed these vlogs! Beautiful! 🏭🛠
Bravo! You hit it out of the park again. I liked that you put the "pajama boys" in their place with admiration for the manly men who worked the mills. Like him or hate him you have to give our President credit for bringing back American industrial /manufacturing jobs which used to be the backbone of the American economy and main stay of the middle class.
Very beautifully done and scripted… Thank you so much
Thanks for the reply. I know there’s only so much you can go over about the babe bus. All your videos are a treat. Thank you again😎
Miss Casey absolute wonderful narration and good video thank you I think you are born for this job
Loved it. Casey Roman you're One of a kind.
Thank you again for this impressive video. You find such interesting places and you work with the camera is A++
This video reminds me of my time working in a steel mill as a young guy. It was McLouth steel in Trenton Mi. , worked there for 10 years. It has long sense closed down. Have I ever told you that I love your videos ) Nice job on this video pretty lady. Big thumbs up...
Great content and editing ! Thank you
Nicely done, thanks for sharing it.
Your stellar story writing and presentation deserves a wider audience. Great overview of history through to the present. There is no higher accolade than people of the trade or region compliment your work. Cheers!
No doubt you should have a steel mill with your name on it...hot, fierce, a bit temperamental, but a source of strength to all who come in contact with you...and the stuff legends are made of! Casey Roman...woman of steel! 😘🦸♀️😉 I really enjoyed this edition...and have added "eating a steak cooked by molten steel" to my to do list!
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
Did I mention what an excellent story teller you are? Love your sense of humor too! Keep going ! Love your channel!
great opening! Another cool place and history lesson....as usual! Thanks!
Damn that’s a good video. Keep it up and I’m starting a Casey Roman trail where people visit all the places you do stories on, this is definitely a place I want to visit now.
Another great photo story/history lesson...thank you😘🙏🇺🇸🚐 safe travels
Goosebumps, thank you!
Wow this was great! Awesome work
Thank you Casey for sharing this wonderful piece of America history!❤️
Hey red. You almost made me cry. I will miss this channel when you hit the big time.
Casey, it may be dead but you brought it to life super presentation and photography. Brilliant!!!
You have amazing skills presenting your adventures. I so enjoy watching them.
You have an amazing talent for storytelling. Love your work.
That was excellent. As a dude who grew up looking at this site every day, I’d say you captured the feeling among proud locals pretty well.
Another great video Casey thanks.
Nice story telling, I'm a steel worker myself in Butler pa not far from here and I take great pride in my work.
Amen! Great job.
your videos are so good and interesting, thank you and don't forget the fun stuff :) (for you)
I just love blast furnaces. I never worked in one, but I did work at it's closest approximation, a carbon producing facility where a rotating steel drum was being fed material that was being reduced to carbon by a smaller version of a blast furnace.
just heard about this place a couple hours ago. work tends to send me around places, like right now im working just outside Pittsburgh and in my downtime i like explore. my friends back home do some researching for me so when i get time i grab the camera and go.
this is just what i was hoping to find, see, and background on the place awesome job casey!
New follower here...excellent story telling. I very much enjoy all your videos. Really well done
