Working rail roads and their tracks.

Yes that's where I've seen it and where it was located I've toured the Quincy mine before never the smelter, or lake linden museum. hope they get that other steam locomotive operational by lake linden? Boiler in rough shape last I heard a while back.

Also on lake lindens museum grounds there's a pretty large old railroad snow clearing plow with foldable wings sitting on tracks outside, unsure what you call it looked like it needed to be pushed by a locomotive? Anyways pretty impressive for me to drive by it hopefully get up there this summer.

I found some coal dock photos taken here when coal was king. I assume this is eastern coal.

I live within walking distance of Young's High Bridge in central Kentucky. Built in 1889 and it stands today 100% exactly as it was the day it was opened to traffic. I remember seeing freight trains cross it in the 1980s. Today it has been privately purchased by a club who uses it for bungee jumping events once per month. In the background (the vantage point from which the picture in the Wiki article was taken) is the Wild Turkey bourbon distillery which this rail line once served as a major customer.

I see N&W had another derailment in Ohio a few days ago and Toledo is up in arms about their trains going through town with haz mat tank cars. Same trains that derailed in East *********.
