That was then (1953)
Intro to chapter 20:
At best there is little that is picturesque about a coal mine, and when a leaden sky merely echoes back the grayness of the dump, picturesqueness is at a minimum. Yet U.S. 40 runs through coal-mining country for 150 miles, and this basic industry can scarcely be omitted from any presentation of a cross section.
The location is about halfway across the northern panhandle of West Virginia, through which U.S.40 cuts for a few miles.
This is now. A view of U.S. 40 as it passes through Triadelphia, which is located about halfway across the panhandle.
Triadelphia is 52 miles southwest of Pittsburgh and 6 miles east of Wheeling.
