This is the second video in which I recorded a train being loaded at a coal mine.
This is at the Warrior Coal Mine in Manitou, Kentucky.
The train being loaded is from the Paducah & Louisville Railway.
The coal will be burned at a power plant in Louisville.
You'll see the tower in action and learn how the coal is pulled from the ground and ultimately loaded into the hopper cars.
I hope you enjoy.
Let me know if you have any questions.
