WB is an interesting place. It hit it's high point sometime in the 50's when my parents were groing up. When the coal industry dried up the whole economy went south, slowly.

I have lots of relatives in WB. I remember when I was a kid visiting those relatives, one of my favorite things to do was to go down to the "Corner Toy Store" (?) on Market Street to look at Lego. It's long gone however. At least there is a TRU up (...) (25 years ago, 27-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.us.pa.phi.swb)
