This facility was still in use when I was a very young child in the 50's. I remember seeing railroad cars parked next to it. It dates back to at least 1909 as I have a photo of it with that date on it. It was part of the heavily industrialized Dunbar Creek area around Dunbar, Pa which contained numerous coal mine coke oven operations, Dunbar Furnace, a Plant for making glass and called Pennsylvania Wireglass(glass with wire mesh in it) and 5 railroads(PRR, B&O, WM, NH&D, and West Penn Railway all ran through the little valley.)
