Hope you enjoyed the views and history. Let me know what your favorite part was.

[@MjC7192]

I went to military school in New Bloomfield

[@davestrang8585]

The furnaces🎉🎉

[@rxc640]

The white cliffs.

[@samplesoutdoors4469]

great show been following a while now

[@ThirdHandle]

I can’t tell you how annoying catch phrases are…but “come along with me” never gets old. Your video talent and everything else is incredible. You found what you were passionate about in life and you made it work for you. I’ve been a subscriber since the beginning, and you never disappoint. Thanks brother!

[@JPVideos81]

I greatly appreciate that.

[@ThirdHandle]

@@JPVideos81Hey…you earned it.

[@lindaschouten5317]

I have been injoyed all the movies you have made in the last 2 months.

[@russellyoung1262]

I don't usually watch videos this long, but it was so interesting, I had to...Love this

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@brianabramo135]

The arched concrete structures were the supports for storage bins where the finished product was kept for loadings into rail cars

[@JPVideos81]

Ahhh, that makes sense. Thank you for that info.

[@THX-vb8yz]

Too cool

[@joangravel2436]

Thanks I enjoyed watching 👍

[@dreamagination-infinite]

These overgrown structures are just gorgeous looking! Those big arches covered and partially hidden with greenery are an exciting place to explore. The whiteness of the cliffs is an interesting contrast.

[@JPVideos81]

Gorgeous indeed

[@703am]

you sure don't see cliffs like that every day. very unique, enjoyed watching take care

[@carmenconcepcion447]

It's totally amazing such a beautiful place

[@patriciasentz4950]

This place was something special. Not only was the scenery gorgeous, but all the "ruins" were fascinating. Those blast furnaces were right out of midevil times .... so cool! All the buildings and archways and walls. I bet that place was a sight to see back in the day. Thanks Matt!!!

[@allenpedrick6502]

Love seeing the old buildings. They all have lots of stories to tell. Thanks for taking us along to see them.

[@alanstant9356]

Very beautiful like always jay. Thanks for sharing my friend.

[@catherineengle4196]

Wow! Those are some pretty cool ruins. You have everything from the cliffs of dover to the Roman arches...lol... I love the furnaces. The way they are built is like a work of art. So many fascinating things to see on that rail trail. Blown away again by the architecture. I wish things today were still built with the same durability and beauty. ✌

[@JPVideos81]

😁 the furnaces & train bridge were my favorite structures and I enjoyed the views from the artificial mountain.

[@mattPG78]

Just watched this with Mel and her Dad. So glad you came down and got to see this place up close. Had a great time as always!

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks again for the invitation!

[@garymessina1609]

Awesome adventure thanks jay for taking us along with you and Matt great video

[@JPVideos81]

My pleasure!

[@michaelhardy195]

Amazing videos and good health 👍😎🙏

[@micheleredtfeldt678]

That was pretty cool to see! I enjoyed all of it, so all was my favorite part! Thanks for taking us with you!

[@dianacanales2526]

Awesome architecture of the stone arches and furnaces! Nice that you got to explore all this with Matt. Spectacular views from the white cliffs and gorgeous greenery all along the way. You really have some fantastic trails over in Pennsylvania! Loved the video, Great work!💙

[@patriciasentz4950]

Loved coming on this adventure with you. So much going on! I wouldn't get in that water either, and my temp here in FL. Is 95 degrees with a heat index of 105. I enjoy it when you show us your journey to get to your chosen destination. To me, it's part of the "come along with me" invite you extend.

[@JPVideos81]

Stay cool and thanks for stopping by.

[@gigicostlow4414]

Wow, such a cool explore. When you explore places like this I always think how cool it would be to have someone with you that worked there and could tell you about the place. Some really beautiful scenery. Thanks for taking us along.

[@frankforrest1597]

Another great explore! Thanks Jay and Matt 👍

[@Steve-ow4jt]

What an amazing exploration. The views from the cliffs were absolutely amazing and looks like one could have quite a time sliding down the slopes. I'd certainly be willing to give it a go! I love the ruins buried in the woods. Really gives off a mysterious vibe. Can hardly wait to see where your next adventure takes us. Until then stay safe and God bless. Steve in Oklahoma

[@JPVideos81]

Some of those ruins are hard to see this time of year, but certainly gives it that mysterious look.

[@terryciavola5962]

What a great video! Seeing the difference in the water levels is very interesting! Beautiful area! Thank you for sharing this! 👍🥰❤️

[@barbara-pigeonbray4579]

This was such an interesting explore of the cliffs and old mill ruins.. I especially loved the blast furnaces....beautiful craftmanship .Glad Matt shared this awesome location with you ...Thank you for taking us along !👍💙

[@MyVintageLife]

Wow! I love this channel, and this is another awesome episode. Great sharing!

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks so much!

[@coreymcgreal6091]

I enjoy coming on your awesome adventures I lived in Binghamton Ny i made lots of trips in to PA but get to see so much more from your videos. Pa has so many viaducts

[@darlenegood4101]

The Wandering Woodsman has been to the white cliffs several times. I really enjoy them. He has not videos the ruins that you have in this video. Not fair you did not film your way back up the cliffs...lol. Tell Lili Happy Belated Birthday for me...I noticed that it was Thurday 7-20,

[@JPVideos81]

I'll pass that along. Thank you

[@UrbanKiwiana]

Good afternoon mate..that is so interesting and very very stunning , I'm glad the new owners made it open for the public to enjoy..I always love ruins to.. have a blessed weekend Jp

[@JPVideos81]

Yes sir. Great for people to explore and learn about the history or just to take in the views.

[@julietteneylon4243]

You always find us the most amaxing places to explore. Thsnks for taking us along on your adventures

[@terryciavola5962]

That was awesome JP! I love this adventure! Very interesting, love the old structures. TY 👍🥰❤️

[@sherrieh2062]

Always a fun excursion with you JP!

[@JPVideos81]

💙😊

[@ruthshelton-tp9ie]

At -- 30:47 -- the upper left side looks like a face in the window. 😊 It's really tree branches. Kool history. I live right along the Chesapeake, in Maryland. A bunch of British ships from the War of 1812 were sunk & still are under the water -- as the British were trying to block American's from using a part of the waterway to get supplies. I don't know why they were never pulled up & saved as a part of history. I don't know where that location is any more You'd like the Concord Point Lighthouse & the Keeper's House across the street. Call a head to see when it's opened. Take care & thanks for a fun time as always.

[@cynthiacleaver9742]

Really cool finds!!! 💖💙💖💙💖💙

[@JPVideos81]

Glad you enjoyed the findings 💙

[@davidotto7666]

Hey buddy I just want to tell you thanks for the good videos we really appreciate your honesty and Associates of showing the history of sites and stuff taking your time out of your day to explain to us the backstory and all that that is pretty cool thank you again for taking us on the one full Ventures with you someone was really enjoy we almost feel like we're there with you like physically that's how good your videos are thank you again God bless you have a blessed day

[@JPVideos81]

I appreciate that!

[@julieb2398]

Ahh now you are in my grandpa and great grand parents area! I knew you would get that way sooner or later ....yep still stalking PA from OH... There should be old silk factories around there too! I think they closed in the early 1900's. My grandpa worked full time at 13 yrs old in the silk factory and later for the railroad....

[@JPVideos81]

I get around, sometimes later than sooner lol

[@musclecarmitch908]

Wow! That's part of Pennsylvania I've been to! I have pictures of train's crossing the bridge! I also saw 3 mile island when I was there too, and we went to Hershey to the Chocolate factory. Awesome video JP! Really cool stuff there!

[@JPVideos81]

Maybe next time I'll catch a train there

[@brianabramo135]

That place is really cool, those old foundations are the remnants of a large cement factory that still was standing as of the late 90’s . The white cliffs are made up of the waste rock and old cement from the factory. The whole operation was probably 1/4 mile long

[@sonplusone7059]

Very cool place to explore. Liked it all. Looks like a great day. Sliding down the limestone hill would have been fun with maybe a plastic sled. 🤗

[@JPVideos81]

A sled and full padding would be good 😆

[@billtuohey941]

Just caught your video. I was the one that stopped to talk to you about this bike when you were on the boulevard

[@JPVideos81]

Oh nice. My review video is out on that bike. Thanks for stopping by.

[@paulahartley7129]

Thank.ypu for all you do j.p these places are amazing thank you for all the history historical information you give us here you came a long way in your channel I've watched you for yrs and I want to thank you for that ❤

[@JPVideos81]

😊

[@gaylebrodt676]

What an awesome exploration! Really interesting history and gorgeous views! The cliff is just beautiful, and I agree, breathtaking! I remember thinking that it looked like snow. The structure that you said looked like a house, I thought so too, and again to me, kind of resembles a castle, one of my favorite parts. The building that you thought was a power room is so cool, but that spider though, wow, really big! lol Those massive arched supports are incredible and I bet you are right in that they were supports used for some kind of platform, so fascinating. Looks like you two had a fun scooter ride! Love your photos! Great video JP, thank you!

[@JPVideos81]

The scooters made travel much easier and it was a nice variety of history.

[@tambojo1554]

This was cool !! Thanks for sharing this adventure with us!! ❤love it, a beautiful place to see!!

[@JPVideos81]

My pleasure

[@glennsmith3303]

We live near that trail and I have been on it with my bike. I did not know you could cross over the tracks and see all that stuff. I just never thought about it. I have to go back now..., thank you, great entertainment.

[@JPVideos81]

Be safe and happy exploring

[@MEL2theJ]

Another Awesome Adventure 🧗

[@Northcoastrails]

Awesome adventure 😊

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks for the visit

[@davidhibbs6989]

Great adventure JP 😎

[@MrIceman22]

You have done it again what a great video thanks again for sharing this one keep it up :D

[@dorabort6622]

When he said to be careful I could never get near the edge! I am really afraid of heights! I liked the video none the less! You always have interesting vidios

[@JPVideos81]

Thank you!

[@williamallen6934]

This one is super cool jp.good work.

[@harveycaldwell2409]

Jp videos thank you for this video

[@cabamama]

Loved this adventure. So many good things to see. Maybe there is a deep hole full of water at the quarry which would be dangerous for people to be around. Maybe that's why it's off-limits to the public. My favorite part was the brick on the one structure......really unique form.

[@explorerthedennis]

place looks amazing

[@davestrang8585]

Limestone and dolimite are key ingredients in firebrick used by blast furnaces

[@justinhobart8747]

💙 😉👍 Interesting very beautiful area with lots to explore! Pretty cool JP... Thanks for sharing! I just posted a video you might find interesting too, I message you and shared it earlier...

[@junie1955]

Drone the quarry Jp great adventur as always

[@JPVideos81]

I will in the future

[@PatriseHenkel]

I imagine it’s changing the ph of the river- I know limestone is used to restore acid mine water sources.

[@Spencer02]

That is a very big building, biggest i ever seen. Looks like most of the processes where done inside the building, would be amazing to see it in its original state. That was a scary looking spider, i don't like spiders

[@williamwatson4625]

I would've liked to catch at least a glimpse of the quarry reservoir, what's left of it, but as you've stated, it's not open to the public. Darn! Great video though.

[@JPVideos81]

If I return I'll bring my drone for a look at it.

[@Chaotic-Demise77]

That place reminds of the place in Simpson. Minus the brick.

[@Mark-iv7np]

Very enjoyable informative video. Very nice area. I doubt if the limestone getting into the river can be any worse from acid mine water up our way(Scranton/Wilkes-Barre). Don't know what "taggers" get out of what they do. Something ill never do

[@donnasilver940]

I enjoy these . Except for the spider pics.Yikes!

[@TopoRanger]

Haldeman & Billmeyer I think was the company that made the refractory bricks.

[@researcherextraordinaire8867]

Why is it that construction photos and videos of old world structures such as the Shocks Mill railroad bridge are sparse to nonexistent and the construction time frames as well? "It was opened in 1905." When did construction began and by what means were those huge block stones set in place during the late 1800's? I assume construction must have taken a few years when you consider the logistics, equipment and skilled man power available at that time. The history is spotty to say the least. Thanks for the video.

[@josephdecarlo1262]

I drove by that last August.

[@Adalwolf17]

Wow I never knew this was local to me. Is that a full bike trail along the river you were riding in the begining of the video? If so i need to get out and ride lol

[@JPVideos81]

Yes, it's a nice rail trail

[@rovhalgrencparselstedt8343]

Those foundations along the rails could also have been bins for coal, limestone and ore.

[@THX-vb8yz]

20:04 Those are some pretty thick walls....

[@dayvwoodruff-higgins6238]

Probably there was a giant tank on top of the double wall of arches . . .

[@MusicFandom]

all of the padlocks are for each person allowed in. Each person locks his own lock onto another lock creating a chain of locks.

[@truckmann1762]

How long does those electric machines run on a full charge? How fast can they go?

[@JPVideos81]

19mph top speed and around 15 miles range

[@XenobiaWinterWolfMoon]

So it's like the planet Arrakis in the Duniverse.

[@hiworldstephensonultranate290]

Saw it all JP discovered

[@nomadsempirebuilder9461]

Coaling Tower!!!

[@debohannan4315]

Isn't burnt limestone quick lime ? You know the stuff they grind up into apowder caled cement ?

[@charleanemmasmom]

May mentioned the old mansion on the property. Do you plan to check it out too?

[@charleanemmasmom]

Matt

[@JPVideos81]

We rode by it but wasn't anything we could get close to.

[@staceyrees353]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@hiworldstephensonultranate290]

may get bk dangerous places like i was in when braver in Ireland GT Documentary n buddy tr Tks

[@2011thekaj]

Is there Alligators in that river?

[@JPVideos81]

Hopefully not

[@Emeraldcoastking]

Be best to find pics of the place in its time.. has to be some around

[@JPVideos81]

I did show pictures of when the buildings were still standing...

[@enrico7342]

Jay, aren't they Coke ovens?

[@JPVideos81]

Honestly I'm not sure. Matt said they were blast furnaces, but I did mention to him about coke ovens when I was there.

[@thickernell]

They look like coke ovens. Rural Pennsylvania is riddled with them.

[@thickernell]

OK. Just saw you talking about the limestone quarry. Likely they baked the limestone in the ovens to make quicklime.

[@jacobpoucher]

you have never been white water rafting or kayaking i take it?

[@jacobpoucher]

mountain eh?
