Overview[]
The Centralia Fire Company No. 1 is a volunteer department that protects the near-ghost town of Centralia, PA. As of 2017, the town had a total of 5 residents. Centralia is most-well known for the underground mine fire which has been actively burning since 1962. As a result of that, most of the buildings in town had to be demolished due to the unsafe conditions, leaving just a few sparse holdouts.
