Abandoned Historic Power House Set For Demolition 2019
This place was built in 1903 and served as the main power house for Ingersoll Rand in Phillipsburg NJ.
The location will be demolished in a few weeks so I am glad I got in and made a short video too preserve the memories of this awesome building!!! RIP but we will never forget you!!!!
I ran into security as i was leaving this place so I could not spend much time here,had to make it super fast!!!!
From 1903 to 2000, the company was the town's biggest employer and the biggest taxpayer. It wasn't unusual for multiple generations of a family to work there. They made rock drills that helped develop the interstate highway system. They made pumps, steam condensers and rock compressors.
There was a company grocery store and social club. It built housing developments and apartments.
But from its mid-century peak of about 5,000 employees, the company slowly declined. Divisions moved out of town. And then, one day, it was gone.
The company is now based in Dublin, Ireland. A timeline on the Ingersoll Rand website weaves a complicated tale of mergers and acquisitions. Not once does it mention Phillipsburg.
But the specter of Ingersoll Rand has remained here. For years, the town government and developers have struggled to pick up the pieces of the old industrial site, the largest and quite possibly only undeveloped area in this town of 14,500 people.
A groundbreaking earlier this month means industry may soon return to the Ingersoll Rand site -- to a town that has scarcely known life without it.
Information in the following report comes from the Express-Times and Star-Ledger story archives, mostly from around the time the plant closed.
1861
The Ingersoll Rock Drill Co. forms to manufacture a steam-powered rock drill patented three years earlier by Scandinavian inventor Simon Ingersoll.

1903
The first Ingersoll-Sergeant factory opens in Phillipsburg. Within a year, it employs 1,000 people.
1905
The Ingersoll-Sergeant Drill Co. merges with Rand Drill Co. to form Ingersoll Rand.

1918
Ingersoll Rand forms the Phillipsburg Development Corp. to provide low-cost housing in what is now the town's Valley View development. On the other side of town in Hillcrest, Ingersoll Rand built more affluent housing for management.

1940s-'60s
The heyday of Ingersoll Rand in Phillipsburg, which employed about 5,000 people at its peak. In 1954, the company suffers its worst tragedy when four employees are killed and dozens hurt in an explosion.
Labor strife roils the company in the '60s, with one strike said to last six to eight months. The rift never fully heals.

1986
Ingersoll-Rand forges a partnership with competitor Dresser Industries, forming Dresser-Rand and later moving its turbo division to upstate New York.
1990
Only one local division remains, the pump division employing between 800 and 1,000 people.

2000
Parent company Ingersoll Rand sells its Ingersoll-Dresser Pumps division to Texas-based competitor Flowserve Corp., ending I-R's 97-year business presence in Phillipsburg. Soon after the purchase is completed, the new owners announce the elimination of 447 of the division's approximately 500 employees.
Though it no longer operates there, Ingersoll Rand retains the title for 380 contaminated acres that make up Commerce Park in P'burg and Lopatcong Township.
2004
Preferred Unlimited Inc., a developer based in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, purchases the Phillipsburg side of Commerce Park from Ingersoll Rand for $16 million.
2008
Bear Stearns, which holds a mortgage on the center of Commerce Park, collapses amid a national financial crisis. Other entities eventually assume control of the loan for that section, including Preferred and Ingersoll Rand, which continues to handle environmental remediation. Future development requires coordination with all stakeholders, municipalities and state agencies.

2012
Preferred gives up on redevelopment. It sells the property not encumbered by the Bear Stearns mortgage to Phillipsburg. The town pays $1 for the land and forgives about $275,000 in back taxes.
2013
The last vestiges of Ingersoll Rand's business leaves Phillipsburg as Flowserve moves its operations from Commerce Park to Hanover Township, Northampton County.

PA Deer Camp 2018
It's that time of year again, PA Deer Camp 2018 is here. Let's pack up the Jeep and head up to Wellsboro, Tioga County for; Pennsylvania Whitetail Deer Season 2018 - SNOW EDITION!
Seems like it takes a long time to get here, then before you know it Thanksgiving is here and it's time to make the ride up to Camp.
Grab a beverage, and a snack (which has a double meaning this trip), sit back and enjoy.
Shawn and I started our ride up to Camp at about 6:30am on Black Friday, to enjoy the 3 days before the season starts. We had a ton of good food, some of which didn't turn out too well. Had two variety packs of 21st amendment beer, some Corona, and a pack of White Claw Black Cherry seltzer, along with two bourbons. Yes, we brought plenty of it home.
Laughing and ball busting seem to reign supreme there this trip as a burnt brisket led to Cook being renamed to Snacks.
Getting together with friends and relatives is what its all about, bagging a deer is a bonus for us, though sure, we do want to get one.
WARNING: I didn't remove or bleep out the some of the language this year. But there really wasn't much of it that made it on to the film. It keeps it true to form, don't know many camps were a F-bombs aren't common.

LAMSON JUNCTION, GOFFSTOWN, NH Bedford Boomers informal modular railroad group
Goffstown: On Saturday 7th December the Goffstown Historical Society (GHS) opened the museum for their annual wreath raffle and model trains display. Many were unaware of Lamson Junction being located in the rear of the museum. Lamson Junction is a a functioning exhibit filled with model trains and operated by the members of the Bedford Boomers. In just the 1st hour and a half, over fifty people visited the museum, enjoyed tours in the one-room school house, refreshments and talks with David Pierce, GHS Treasurer on history and the display of one of two train bells, yes it rings from the Uncanoonuc Railway. Pierce would also like you to know that people can join as a member for only $20 annually, Students and Seniors are less and there is a family discount. The GHS is a not for profit organization with dues and donations accepted. Members receive special notification of all events, semiannual newsletters as well as the Annual Yearbook. Member meetings feature programs and lectures and are held on the third Monday of the month during the months of April, May, June, September and October. The museum is open to the public each Saturday from mid June through mid October from 1pm to 4pm. Some Sundays during this period are utilized for day-long special events.
The Bedford Boomers are an informal modular railroad group with roots in southern New Hampshire. We actually have members in all six New England states as well as New York, New Jersey, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Our modular layout consists of individually constructed and owned modules that range from scale reproductions of prototype areas to dragons and Viking long boats. The primary concept being that model railroading is fun and organizations such as the Boomers should be inclusive, thus allowing the serious as well as beginners and the more fancifully creative to enjoy the hobby.
For 30 years the Boomers organized and sponsored an annual exhibition in Bedford, NH. Today the Boomers remain very active in our local communities with activities including constructing or helping maintain permanent displays at the Goffstown, NH Historical Society; Bedford, NH Public Library; Manchester, NH VA Hospital & Nursing Home; and Seashore Trolley Museum in Kennebunkport, ME. Over the years the Boomers have compiled a record of over 40 benefit exhibitions including 13 consecutive Father's Days (week long) displays at the Anheuser Busch Merrimack, NH Brewery Tour Center and in 2006 participated in the Manchester, NH YMCA annual fundraiser.
