Reply to "URR Dumping Slag in West Mifflin"

I thought for sure that WftTrains would talk about the "perty kellers" in the sky when they were dumpin slag. 

Rob:

Thanks for mentioning that which I had forgotten to include.  The sky would light up a bright orange when they were dumping slag and it could be seen for miles.  That was cheap entertainment when I was a kid.  And back then they were still running steam engines like the one in those two side-by-side photos. 

Back to drinking my pop.
