About Barclay
The ghost town of Barclay, in Franklin Township, Bradford County, Pennsylvania, was a coal mining town. Coal was transported down the mountain by a gravity powered incline plane rail system. There was a brake house at the top of Barclay Mountain. The loaded cars were attached to a cable that pulled the empty cars back up. At the bottom, the cars were hauled 16 miles into Towanda by steam locomotives, to be emptied there into the Pennsylvania Canal's North Branch coal barges.
