Geez, that town looks very close, doesn't it? Not it, though. Remember that the WAIN town is about a three hour walk from the Appalachian trail, so that is another clue to use. Maybe map that out and about nine miles from the trail line will be the WAIN goal.

Well, I (think I) know where it is but I am currently on safari (first internet access since Christmas Eve) and probably should not play. If I am correct, part of the name is the same as a disgraced British politician.

Happy New Year everyone

WOW!
That is correct! How did you narrow that down like that? That seemed to be pretty difficult this round. Sorry. If, or when, I win again, I'll try to make it much easier.

Here is another from that old town - the historic Mauch Chunk Train Station. Mauch Chunk is also the name of the railroad that serves the area. Part of that is now a bike path.
