Just makes you wonder what those buildings would have looked like back in day, very awesome finds JP.

[@JPVideos81]

I did some digging and have some answers to what we found. Will be doing a live update soon.

[@bonniebowden189]

The video was very good too!!@

[@davekreitzer4358]

Those locked pipes could be to check contamination from long ago !?!? 🤔💀

[@rxc640]

I just realized something. You told me about a culvert under 81 a few years ago. This is the same creek, the 81 culvert is nearby.

[@JPVideos81]

Correct

[@enrico7342]

Great video. Have you considered finding the old Wilkes barre and eastern line from Stroudsburg to DuPont

[@jamesp2662]

The pipes with caps locked are very possible old testing wells, for possible contaminants in the soils like oil, pcbs deisel etc it is a a railroad yard back then they dumped in the ground with no worries

[@catherineengle4196]

Wow that water looked clear and cold 🥶...lol... all that stuff out there it seems like you would be able to find some historical information. Things that make you go 🤔 ✌

[@JPVideos81]

Cold now, refreshing this summer

[@catherineengle4196]

[@walterlangston4484]

here we had about A foot of snow now most of it is gone

[@rodsmith3911]

With a date of 1911, clean, clear water and a pipe around 6 inches diameter, possibly a water supply for steam locos. One of the concrete plinths could have been for a water tank. The concrete pit possibly an ash pit for emptying loco ashpans? Those sort of facilities were everywhere in steam days and they take an age to rot away, so only oldies like me can remember using such things in my youth!

[@sparky107107]

not sure i would jump in the water there,, be thinking jagged rock and rebar.

[@fixedgearfever69]

Might be some nice old bottles.

[@mkendallpk4321]

The vertical pipe sticking out of the ground that has a locked cap could be a sampling well to check for signs of pollution. I have seen them a local Superfund sites and they look just like that one. You can check on the EPA website if this is a Superfund designated area.

[@Vegasparanormal]

Place is really cool

[@gregdiiamond3899]

Always a treat to watch your uploads JP! That is a cool culvert exploration. Wouldn’t it be cool to research the places you explore? I guess that’s just the history lover in me.lol

[@JPVideos81]

I did find out more info regarding this area that I'll be sharing soon. Stay tuned.

[@kathie__1]

I really love these videos, JP. It is so much fun walking through nature and finding things that most of us would overlook. I would never walk through a culvert myself even if I could physically do it -as I am very afraid of water- but, I love going through them in your videos. Thank you so much!

[@JPVideos81]

I much rather go underground than high above, so it's my pleasure to share it with you.

[@bsage5514]

Something about water flowing that NEVER gets old....Great explore and sleuthing. Always a mystery to discover in these kinds of finds! So well done Thank you Sooo much for taking us along on this one and I look forward to next one on this area. 😳🥺😲😯☺

Must be the Pisces in me that is always attracted to water.

This appear to be ground monitoring wells, the padlocked pipes in the ground. Possibly monitoring the area for some sort of contamination?

[@JPVideos81]

Interesting... thanks for sharing that.

[@suzanjournagan1112]

Hey , Ho , Let's Go!!!! Cool.

[@lisarobertson5164]

Another great explore JP. Something tells me, that even in the middle of summer, that water is going to be ice cold !

[@JPVideos81]

Most likely, but will feel good on those hot humid days.

[@lisarobertson5164]

@@JPVideos81, back in the 1970's when I was a teenager, I went to my friend's grandparent's farm in Newville, Pa. during two different summer vacations. We went swimming at a place called Doubling Gap at Colonel Denning State Park where the water came straight from the mountains. It was wonderful, but the water was FREEZING ! Oh well, when you're 14 years old you can stand anything. Probably not so much anymore. 😄

[@nickauclair1477]

Imagine jumping in the water doing a cannonball and getting impaled by the metal rod?

[@normanjones8089]

I would totally love to know the history of this place.

[@boblilly9317]

Culverts carried the Central RR of NJ main line and engine service tracks over the Solomon Creek. The CNJ abandoned their facilities there on March 31, 1972. The lower area when following the creek will take you to the former carshop area (where the RR cars were repaired)

[@randygyulay5114]

Aren't there old railroad maps that can tell what was there? You have a date and I guess a GPS location, so that could be a start. Old insurance maps exist. Thanks for finding old and hidden treasures. Stay safe in your explorations.

[@JPVideos81]

I did and I'll be doing a follow up video with my findings.

Nothing planned at the moment

[@rxc640]

Did you remember to look for the other culvert about a half mile away?

[@1967BlackRose]

Thinking the circular platform may have been a turn table. Great explore, can't wait to see it in Summer

[@JPVideos81]

I believe it was part of a roundhouse or turntable. I found some old photos and it was in the same area.

[@terryciavola5962]

Jason that was an awesome video. What a great find, can only imagine what it once looked like! I am looking forward to seeing you go back in the summer. As always thank you!! ❤️

[@anthonycoach4551]

There was something very big around there there's a lot of stuff around to prove that there was like a rail yard or yards or some sort of plant for locomotive's

[@The_Krouton]

I love your abandoned videos

[@tonydeleo3642]

I wonder how they poured all that concrete out there in the middle of nowhere.

[@JPVideos81]

It's not far from the nearby town. They most likely had a concrete plant on site.

[@jerryshira]

Why does Pennsylvania have so many culverts

[@M332]

Nice video JP, those concrete bases you all found may have been part of a coal tipple for coaling locomotives, as for the creek it looked so inviting, but there was a lack of minnows swimming about, and yes granted the bridge is over a hundred years old the amount of corrosion of the concrete floor make me wonder if there isn't some sort of acid mine drainage emptying into the creek somewhere up stream, but I digress be safe out there.

[@sherrieh2062]

We have an old sulfur mine in a creek off of a main river channel close to where I live in Pittsburgh….too much acidity in the water for minnows. The water there still has a yellow tinge to it. It’s pretty cool though!

[@JPVideos81]

A tipple is definitely possible. I didnt consider that. I also didnt notice any of the usual orange/rust stains you see with AMD. But I'll definitely have to check the area to be sure.

[@richardriley6677]

What does the historical site say about that area of what was there? Does the historical site have photos of what was there?

[@JPVideos81]

Stay tuned

[@sherrieh2062]

I can’t believe how clear the water was! Glad you revisited it! 👍

[@JPVideos81]

Looks very inviting. Should be a fun return adventure this summer.

[@DavidUstick]

The Crescent piece... could it have been part of a smokestack

[@heatherfranklin5608]

Hmm I wonder what that one thing it was with the whole in it

[@frankforrest1597]

What an interesting location. I can only guess what the place was and used for. The padlocked pipe is a test well for ground water contamination or migration of contamination from spilled or dumped chemicals. Former business near where I worked has approximately 40 of them in a grid formation. It's paved over and all buildings have been removed. It's now deemed a "brown field" and can't be used for many years from the toxicity (mercury mostly). It's always fun exploring with you Jay (Alan too), Thanks 👍

[@JPVideos81]

I'll be doing a live episode showing some findings & old maps from this area. Thanks for the info about the pipes.

[@galogalog7555]

Yep, that's a monitoring well for sure.

[@dr.leonardhofstadtersavage6413]

Love the video JP, a lot of weird concrete ground structures. I'm thinking it could have been a rail road building at one time, and rock, coal or ash cars got repaired.

[@dennissweeney6774]

Thanks enjoy your video do you know the name of the river? LIVE in port Jervis ny n.j and pa grew up along the Hudson river just north of MANHATTAN about 15 miles there old train tracks and the first Aqueduct Croton .I know you do mostly P.A and it's a big states. You got some cool video. Maybe if someone known about the place you could post it up top most are going to read a hundred comments. Thanks keep up the good work. Glad you recovered from covid it can kick you ass even though most it no big deal .unless it kicks your ass you think no problem. I have people who have died .I am 58 so no young pup .take care.i just look up how close this place is cool might go out there one day .Thanks.

[@ericashelton1096]

JP I seen something yesterday I thought you might be interested in. I was looking at Old Film's on 8mm reel's, since I recently inherited my Dad's 8 mm movie projector. And for all the one's about Train's! Some of them looked really interesting. From documentaries to preservation. The majority of them were very reasonably priced. From a couple of dollars to & up. And some were vintage trains in other countries. I even seen some vintage "Our Gang" Film's a.k.a.The little Rascals. When they were black and white and even silent movie's. I was really surprised that a good used 8mm movie projector sells for a lot less than I thought they would be.... $40-$50 buck's.... Then when the weather or time is against you to go Train Spotting, you can do it from home. With a great chance of seeing some you would normally never get see otherwise!!!!
