Notes
  • Significance: As of 1984, this site was the last known example of a steam powered, natural gas pumping station in West Virginia. Built as an integral part of a natural gas transmission system designed to supply gas to the greater Pittsburgh area, the Burnsville station is an important example of steam powered technology used by the fossil fuel industry.
  • Survey number: HAER WV-33
