Fishtown Mike:

Therese, Centralia is kind of interesting but there's not much there anymore. Most of the buildings are torn down. And they covered up the abandoned section of highway (the Graffiti Highway) a few years ago. Probably not worth a trip, unless you're driving through to somewhere else. I've been through a few times, and was a little underwhelmed. Granted everyone I've gone with was terrified they were going to fall through the ground to a fiery doom, so the on-foot exploring was very limited.
