Lackawanna Coal Mine
About
The Lackawanna Coal Mine is a museum and retired coal mine located in McDade Park in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
The purpose of the mine is to give visitors a feeling for what it was like to work in an underground mine. The tours are led by former miners, or children of miners.
Visitors board a mine car and descend the #190 slope, about 250 ft (76 m) below ground, into the Clark Vein of coal. The tour proceeds, on foot, through several twisting veins of the abandoned mines.
