      These rocks don't get broken, they're used as is. I can only imagine how heavy they are, especially if it's granite.

    It is nice to see action at the site of the old plant. Bethlehem Steel used to manufacture railroad rail here with BSC Lackawanna embossed on the sides and the date. Some people used to think it was the name of the railroad as DL&W did use rail from Bethlehem's Lackawanna, NY plant. I didn't know so much was still going on there. I believe there still is some rail from this plant on what's left of the Lackawanna main line through the Poconos now operated by GVT. We just received the NKP ALCO PA.

    Looks sunny there yesterday, but I’m guessing not today from the Canadian wildfire smoke 💨

    It's sad that the steel mills in Bethlehem Pennsylvania closed n they made one part into a casino one part into a museum not sure what they did with the rest of the steel mills

      I was told it's Bethlehem Steel (BSCX), and seeing as how I can't find any info on it online, I've been taking that guy's word.
