mervyn Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Wonder how long they will be moving coal? it seems a dying industry over here with the rush to green energy,and with CSX closing some of its coal branches over there it seems coal is in serious decline.take pics while they are still running.
