Centralia is a borough in Columbia County, Pennsylvania, USA.
Founded in 1866, Centralia was a thriving mining town.
A coal mine fire ignited beneath the town in 1962.
The fire started from a landfill burn that spread to the coal mines.
Most residents were relocated in the 1980s and 1990s.
Centralia is mostly abandoned, with only a few structures left.
