The third last train seen at Hershey, another fantastic unit coal train heads east through the small town of 665 with UP 5647, BNSF 9135, and rear DPU BNSF 6207 (F/R/F). Since there were no other railfans present at the crossing with any knowledge of where exactly this train was destined to, one could look at the reporting marks or any logos for any clues, and then look it up on the Internet. In this case, the reporting marks of JECX and the words "Jeffrey Energy" were seen on a few of the coal cars, which after browsing around is a sub-bituminous coal fired power plant in the Sunflower State. It looks like this train is heading to that location, which is about ninety miles west of Kansas City, Missouri.

Fforio/Explore : Cwm Coke Works

 

Cwm Coke Works

1958 - 2002

"In the 1970s, the cokeworks employed 1,500 men and produced some 515,000 tonnes of coke each year. It continued to do so until 1986, when coal was privatised."

"Coke is a fuel with few impurities and a high carbon content, usually made from coal. It is the solid carbonaceous material derived from destructive distillation of low-ash, low-sulfur bituminous coal. Coke made from coal are grey, hard, and porous. While coke can be formed naturally, the commonly used form is man-made. The form known as petroleum coke, or pet coke, is derived from oil refinery coker units or other cracking processes."

This conveyer belt moves coal from the bituminous coal mines at Black Mesa to the tower next to the highway. From here it's loaded onto a train that brings it to the Navajo Generating Station outside Page, Arizona. Anyone ever read the Monkey Wrench Gang by Edward Abbey? Both the conveyer and the train were sabotaged by Hayduke & Co.

The discovery of lead, copper and zinc in southeastern British Columbia in the 1890s gave rise to large scale American investment in the area. Fearing U.S. domination, the Liberal Government backed the Canadian Pacific Railway in the construction of a line to the British Columbia mines through what was then called the Crow’s Nest Pass. It was at this point in the late 1890s that the deposits of bituminous coal were discovered here.
