Fred Stuckmann General Nice, what makes it so unusual? 4/11/2014 9:40:20 AM
Curt Beal General The majority of coal on the CSX Keystone Subdivision is eastbound movements, because most of the mines are in SW PA or WV. It goes east/south to power plants in southern states or to ports to be exported. But there are several mines in Somerset County that send coal to the west instead. I just hardly ever catch those trains. 4/12/2014 2:55:36 AM
