The Forgotten Plane Crash into the Monongahalea River near Mckeesport Pa.

 Many know the story and legend of the infamous B25 bomber that went into the Mon River ,

But many forget there was another crash of a civilian airliner

 A Johnson Airliner  ran out of fuel on its way to Allegheny County Airport in December 23,1954

killing 10 of  28 army  veterans on board . When it ran out of fuel .

So now when some one says they saw a plane pulled out of river which one did they See?

The one in Hazelwood Pittsburgh or one near Mckeesport ?

 You can see how people can get confused because they both happened in mon both when it was cold and snowy.

So did they really see the B25 taken out secretly or the Contracted Johnson Pane?

Strange Industrial ruins in Beaver County Pa

 As you ride down Pa 51 thru Fallston  you will see a small bridge and a sign for Littel steel and when you cross the bridge you will see this strange landscape looks almost bombed out and then a stand alone what looks like a once square shapped  fancy office building for what ever was there

The building has very fancy brick work details  and entrance on it for an industrial building which helps give us a clue as to what went on here.

This was the location of the once famous  Colonial Clay Products Factory

Known for the finest brick in the area you can find it all over even in some of the old original brick streets in some towns . 

Sadly however as the need for bricks lessened and EPA  pollution regulations came into place almost all the brick manufacturers in area went out of business.

I wish they would move and fix up this historic office instead of letting it rot.

An evening spent Investigatng The Ross House and Antique Store

 

 I was recently invited to an evening investigation at the Ross house in Bellaire Ohio by my friends Ken and Sue  who are members of Celestial Paranormal and it was Sues Birthday and the house did not disappoint . 

 https://therosshouse.org

The Ross House and the next door Antique store where built in late 1800s and the home saw many transient workers who rented it sometimes only for short periods of time due to strange things happening in the home .

Armed with all kind of paranormal and electronic test equipment we first explored  the Antique Store full of every imaginable thing you can think of even a dress from Abraham Lincolns Inaugural Ball .

While it was all interesting we did not get much interaction except for upstairs where furniture is sold getting responses from questions on various light arrays we set up. We also heard an old fashioned  steam train whistle several times .

But When Kens friends from Bump in the Night Paranormal showed up to celebrate Sues Birthday the activity upstairs slowed. but down in the homes living room it did not disappoint .

I set up several RF analyzers including a Spectrum Analyzer and radiation meter

 

While in the darkened room an image of human shape popped up behind me and strangely a RF bug finder I was using started tapping out a Morse code type  sequence of letters and numbers and after running it thru a Morse Decoder program it was a strange string of numbers and letters and I soon realized it was routing numbers for for Railroad Freight cars and routes.

We assume one of the entity's was a former railroad worker with the house being so close to CSX  old B&O Railroad Tracks. But when questioned could not get a positive answer.

When we told the owner Cindy what happened she said other groups had similar experience The town was also a Coal Mine town so miners may have stayed there as well . and a nearby Willow Grove Mine which saw a 180 men killed in 1940 may also be a contributing factor to the homes haunting s

 What ever is going on you will not  be disapointed

How Pittsburgh Region took part in a most unusual experiment to provide nationwide TV in the 40s

 Long before Cable TV and Satellite Dish TV services existed Engineers at Pittsburgh's  Westinghouse Electric came up with a scheme to provide Nationwide TV Signals  by using   surplus army planes as a form of flying transmission towers 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratovision

Almost forgotten today . You may have heard old Amateur Radio Guys talk about it or even your great grandparents  who may have even participated in the experiment .

 Known as Stratovision  In 1945 The Glenn L Martin Company and Pittsburgh's Westinghouse Electric  

proposed using a Twin Engine PV-2 Aircraft flying at 25,000 ft  with 250 watts of power at 107.5 Mhz

and 5000 watts on 514 Mhz  to fly over selected areas and transmit TV signals in which Pittsburgh was one of the test citys.

 

From June of 1948 to Febuary 1949 test flights and broadcasts where performed followed up by a former Military B-29 Superfortress at 30,000 ft.

The tests where sucessful but never fully utilized but is still used on ocassion like in Vietnam.

Did Nikola Tesla Really develop a car that ran on Free Energy and was it secretly stored away here in Pittsburgh ?

 The story goes that in 1931 Nikola  Tesla and one of his assistants traveled to Buffalo NY where they tested a  Standard Austin  Auburn Sedan which had no motor and was converted with secret electrical components that let it run with no fuel .

https://teslauniverse.com/nikola-tesla/articles/nikola-teslas-electric-car-folklore-or-historical-fact

 After the demonstration it was secretly transported to Westinghouse Research Center in Pittsburgh  in the community of Church Hill where it was stored and examined and then disappeared when the center closed down. 

Example photo

Now after many different  people have looked into all the claims it appears to be to good to be true just like his involvement in the Philadelphia experiment.

and Thomas  Edison checking out a supposed haunted house in Pittsburgh's North side which again never existed .

Yet people who worked at Westinghouse Research claim to have seen it in storage. 

The whole story would make sense it would have ended up at Westinghouse Research because Tesla was friends with and developed AC power with Westinghouse and also  because all kind of secretive stuff was developed there including a supposed high powered electromagnetic gun  for President Reagan's Star-wars program  ,that they would test during lightning storms so locals would not know work was being done on it. 

Seems in the 80s during severe thunder storms there would always be that one super lightning burst which was suppose to be the gun being tested 

Could Tesla have built such a car absolutely ,but like so many inventions that never see  the light of day could just be a concept and never developed or if it was never performed as expected.

There where hundreds of designs Tesla drew up but never developed. This may well be the case when it comes to the free energy car..

With so many accidents on Rodi Road in Penn Hills Pa. is it cursed because of a 666 Adress along it? .

Rodi Road one of the busiest roads in and out of Penn hills has been plagued with many horrific accidents sometimes fatal  

The 2 lane road with a 35 mph speed limit has been subject to many Pendot study's to improve it but little has been done .90% of the accidents along it can be attributed directly to Speeding and Driver aggression and negligence 

 Yet one particular spot which floods regularly during heavy rains seems to see the most horrific accident as can be seen in incident below  I was partial witness to as I was walking out of my Chiropractors office

This crash near Purity drive actually bent the rim on the trailer of the tractor trailer .

Still have not been able to find out what happened but driver in the white jeep  was pinned in their  vehicle  ,

Now why so many accidents and so horrific right in that block has been rumored because it happened in front of the Car-wash which address is 666 an old abandoned house sat on the property and was rumored to be haunted because of the 666 address but I have found no-proof

of it. Other than it sat abandoned for many years.

One of the reason so many accidents happen in this area is really very simple there is no center turning lane like upper section of road has and impatient motorist trying to get up on to I 376 the parkway east will illegally pass on the double yellow line  and they speed down thru this stretch at very high speeds some one pulls out and bang. 

It all come down to driver negligence and arrogance not a curse.

But a many accidents that happen in that stretch and that strange address I can see rumors of it being cursed .

 

Those Mysterious all Blue Rail Car Trains which come thru Pittsburgh and Ohio Region . What are they and where are they going to ?

 You have heard the Josh Turner " Beware the long Black Train  "  Well there is the Long Blue Train you should also avoid because it stinks . It really does !

 Trash Train coming thru Pittsburgh

Waste Management Rail cars blocking traffic in the village of Fairport.NY

 

Its known as the NYC Trash Train it comes thru 2 or more times a day from city of New York loaded with trash headed for some landfill in Ohio .They are all blue and rectangular in shape and compressed trash is in them and if it is a warm day when train comes thru or stops temporarily you know it.

Rather than burn or dump its millions of pounds of trash in the ocean  it produces every day like it use to .The trash trains have been filling up giant land fills in Pa Ohio and other states  since the late 80s. 

Its almost secret where they go day and night  because they go to very rural landfills which are big enough to handle them 

Seems like a real waste of time and energy . But for now this is how it is done.

It has a bar and dinning room on First floor a Speakeasy called Flappers on the second and even a basement Rath Celler Bar. Even an outside deck

Recently had an excellent lunch with good prices and there definitely feels like something there .

While some guests and employees have encountered some spooky situations you would expect in such an old structure  it seems the spirits both Liquid and Supernatural are quite friendly.
