I recently came across this sad video on Hulu. "The Town That Was" is a story about a small town in Pennsylvania whose coal mine caught fire in 1962 and continues to burn to this day. The mine fire drove out thousands of residents and caused the permanent closure of part of a state route. Despite many attempts by the government to save this quaint little town, it is all but abandoned save the very few who stayed.
