Abandoned - Centralia
Deep in the heart of Pennsylvania sits a ghost town, now just an empty road alongside vacant lots, but it didn't always used to be that way... Hundreds of feet below the town rests the answer as to why an entire American town was forcefully evacuated for fear of their lives. This is the incredible story of the town of Centralia and how hundreds of families left due to a burning coal mine beneath their feet.

Figuring out sinkholes beneath central PA communities
By: Chris Nallan
PALMYRA, Pa. -- Sinkholes are an ongoing problem across central Pennsylvania. It's difficult to know when one will open, and some communities, like Palmyra and Harrisburg, have been seemingly plagued by them.
A lot of residents may not know they're living above one, but there are things than can be done to figure out of if property is sitting above a sinkhole.
Sinkhole experts say it's hard to know when one will open, but there are signs residents need to watch out for, not matter if they've been living in the same area for years or are planning to buy or build a new home.
ARM Group Vice President of Geotechnical Services John Masland said sinkholes are inevitable for parts of central Pennsylvania, but not all areas are at risk.
A potential homeowner should ask is whether or not the property in question is under laid by sinkhole prone bedrock, Masland said. Just because you are in area that is generally prone to sinkholes doesn't necessarily mean the rock beneath is limestone or dolomite.
Homes built on bedrock composed of limestone and dolomite are most at risk for sinkholes.
On the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources websites residents can locate property or potential property to see the bedrock type.
Masland said residents should have a survey done of the property.
It's a matter of degree certainly a geophysical survey could you an idea or the extent the rough likelihood of a sinkhole, Masland said.
If it's determined the property is on bedrock prone to sinkholes, there are signs a sinkhole could exist beneath your floors.
If you see settlement of your house, cracking of walks, depressions in the yard where there weren't any before, windows that start to stick or doors that stick, Masland said.
Palmyra resident Ron Pritchard said he's noticed unsettling signs around his home.
It's definitely an instance where you don't know when it might happen to you, even your own house, Pritchard said. On both sides of the door we've noticed probably over the last three or so years.
Pritchard said there were cracks on both sides of the front door, and they were somewhat similar. The door is dead center in the home, but that's not the only place that has his attention.
Last time we had a small flood in this area that was pretty much under the water in the yard there, like there was a dip, Pritchard said. Pretty much right in this main area that always sits a little bit lower.
Pritchard said it seems to be getting worse lately.
Just a few blocks up the street that's what happened there, people can't go back in the houses, it could happen at any time, Pritchard said.
Masland said the ground beneath property isn't a sure thing.
Soils that have been stable for many, many thousands of years can become unstable, Masland said.
Masland said the instability that comes from how people work the land.
The disturbance with development, construction, changing the way the water flows both above surface and below ground, installation of water bearing and utility lines, all those changes can impact what's going on under ground, Masland said.
Over the years human interactions with central Pennsylvania's ground has impacted sinkhole potential.
I think many areas are in a relatively delicate state of balance, before something either man made it naturally changes that balance and a sinkhole can develop relatively rapidly, Masland said.
Pritchard knows that rapid isn't the speed he can tolerate.
Yeah, I think about it quite often, I mean this is our livelihood right here, I don't really want to lose it, but you never know, Pritchard said.
Masland said anyone living on sinkhole prone land should get sinkhole insurance.
I wouldn't say that you can absolutely prevent a sinkhole from occurring, because sinkholes could be caused by movement of water you have no control of, Masland said.
However, being aware is something the most that can be done.
It's become a thought you know that we might have to move, whether we like it or not, Pritchard said. It's like a cancer, it spreads.

Series of Lititz, Pa. sinkholes but who's responsible for repair?
It was the third in a series of sinkholes and water line breaks since January 2016 -- and the second since David Gerhart purchased the property less than six months earlier. “Clearly there was something catastrophic going on (underground),” Gerhart said.
The previous sinkholes occurred Nov. 29, only two months after the couple purchased the home. Lititz Borough, which acknowledged responsibility for that water main break in the street, immediately closed the 500 block of West Second Avenue, shut off water to homes in the area, set up a traffic detour, then dug up the street, and repaired the break in the street. A borough dump truck, loaded with debris from the repair, collapsed into a sinkhole that suddenly opened in the street. On Jan. 26 2016, the borough repaired a sinkhole in the street after a 19-year-old fell through snow inside a hole while taking trash to the curb...(see the full story in the video)

The road to Cokeville Pa. A look at the old town of Cokeville. Episode 1
The town of Cokeville is now an archaeological site located on the banks of the Conemaugh River in Derry Township, within the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers flood-control project forming the Conemaugh River Lake. A bank of bee-hive coke ovens situated on a hillside above the river plain is still extant, and are the only surviving structures associated with the Isabella Furnace Mine & Coke Works. None of the houses and other buildings that made up the town of Cokeville survive. Traces of the old Pennsylvania Mainline Canal and towpath, along with the remains of the canal outlet lock into the river, can still be found along the Conemaugh River within the former town site of Cokeville.
