  • The 1889 Johnstown, Pennsylvania Flood - a Physics-Based Simulation
    21 The 1889 Johnstown, Pennsylvania Flood - A physics-based Simulation Steven N. Ward Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics University of California, Santa Cruz, USA 1. Introduction 1.1 Thumbnail review of the 1889 flood. In 1889 Johnstown Pennsylvania was an industrial workingman’s town, sited on a flat triangle of ground at the confluence of the Little Conemaugh and Stoney Creek Rivers (Figure 1). Johnstown and its neighbors in the valley—Cambria, Woodvale and E. Conemaugh—housed 30,000 residents. Years of industrialization narrowed and channelized the valley’s three rivers to a fraction of their natural widths (Figure 2). As a consequence, nearly every spring Johnstown flooded. Even so, the water was little more than aggravation to town folk who simply relocated carpets and furniture to upper floors to wait out the water’s retreat. On May 30 and 31, 1889 the upper reaches of the Little Conemaugh and Stoney Creek basins experienced the strongest rains in anyone’s memory. The Conemaugh River at Johnstown rose from 1 foot to 23 feet in just over 24 hours. By mid-day on the 31st, water crept over most of the lower town reaching to Central Park. Although everyone agreed that this flood was worse than usual, residents nonchalant about the affair, yet again moved carpets and furniture upstairs. Like floods of the past, the 1889 one would have faded from history if not for South Fork Lake, 24 km up the Little Conemaugh River and 140 meters higher than Johnstown (Figure 1). Also swollen by the strong rains, South Fork Lake rose steadily throughout May 31 and water began running out its spillways at mid-day.

  • Underground Railroad Network to Freedom Application
    OMB Control No. 1024-0232 Expires 5/31/2013 NATIONAL PARK SERVICE NATIONAL UNDERGROUND RAILROAD NETWORK TO FREEDOM GENERAL INFORMATION Type (pick one): __x_ Site ___ Facility ___ Program Name (of what you are nominating): Allegheny Portage Railroad National Historic Site Address: 110 Federal Park Road City, State, Zip: Gallitzin, PA 16641 County: Cambria Congressional District: PA12 Physical Location of Site/facility (if different): ___ Address not for publication? Date Submitted: Summary: Tell us in 200 words or less what is being nominated and how it is connected to the Underground Railroad. The Allegheny Portage Railroad and Main Line Canal were part of the Pennsylvania Main Line of Public Works, a state-run transportation system connecting Philadelphia and Pittsburgh from the 1830s to 1850s. This system, usually just called the “Main Line,” was a combination of canals, railroads, and inclined planes that moved passengers and cargo across the state. From 1834 when the system opened in its entirety until 1854 when the Pennsylvania Railroad opened, the Main Line was the primary east-west transportation route in Pennsylvania. The 36 mile stretch of the Main Line between Hollidaysburg and Johnstown known as the Allegheny Portage Railroad was also used by people escaping slavery as a transportation route. This application will cover Underground Railroad activities in both Johnstown and Hollidaysburg and will discuss how the Allegheny Portage Railroad linked the two. Allegheny Portage Railroad National Historic Site is a unit of the National Park Service and was authorized by Congress in 1964 to preserve the history of the Allegheny Portage Railroad and its part in the Main Line.

  • Transportation System and Performance 3
    Transportation System and Performance 3 The Multimodal Transportation System—Its Use and Performance The transportation system includes all of the facilities and services that enable people to travel, ship goods, and provide services. This chapter inventories all modes found in Cambria County: • highways, bridges and traffic signals and signs – see page 20 for highways, page 41 for bridges, and page 48 for signals and signs • public transportation services – see page 50 • air travel facilities and services – see page 58 • rail infrastructure and services for freight and passengers – see page 61 • facilities for bicyclists and pedestrians – see page 64. More importantly, the chapter discusses the use, condition, and performance of these facilities and services as PennDOT and the County increasingly manage maintenance and improvement funds based on these metrics. Cambria County Long Range Transportation Plan, 2015-2040 19 Transportation System and Performance 3 Highway Network: Classifications and Volumes Summary Statistics Of the 1,700 linear miles of roadway in Cambria County, roughly 60 percent of roads in this area are locally owned by municipalities, but state-owned roads carry 88 percent of all traffic.

  • Johnstown, Pa
    Chapter 1 Springtime in the mountains. Graceful slopes and frowning precipices robed in darkest green of hemlock and spruce. Open fields here an there verdant with young grass and springing grain, or moist and brown beneath the plow for the planting time. Hedgerow and underwood fragrant with honeysuckle and wild blackberry bloom; violets and geraniums purpling the forest floor. Conemaugh creek and Stony creek dash and plunge and foam along their rocky channels to where they unite their waters and form the Conemaugh river, hastening down the Ohio, to the Mississippi, to the Mexican gulf. Trout and pickerel and bass flash their bronze and silver armor in the sparkling shallows of the streams and in the sombre and placid depths of the lake up yonder behind the old mud dam. Along the valley of the Conemaugh are ranged villages, towns, cities: Conemaugh, Johnstown, Cambria, Sang Hollow, Nineveh, and others, happy and prosperous. Conemaugh nestles at the very foot of the Alleghenies; all railroad trains eastward bound stop there to catch their breath before beginning the long climb up to Altoona. Sang Hollow nestles by the river amid almost tropical luxurance of vegetation; yon little wooded islet in midstream a favorite haunt of fishermen. Nineveh is rich in bog iron and coal, and the whirr of the mill-wheel is heard. Johnstown, between the two creeks at their junctions, is the queen city of the valley. on either side the creek, and beyond, the steep mountain sides; behind, the narrow valley reaching twenty miles back to the lake before, the Conemaugh river just beginning its romantic course.
