Newcastle Coal MinesNew Castle Coal CompanyThis image was provided by Ted McCormack. The original is an O.V. Hunt picture, and the caption says "No. 48 -- Company Yard Engine and Railroad Cars, Newcastle Coal Company, Newcastle, AL". This site is most likely at the No. 2 Mine just north of the tipple and washer. The building in the background might be a machine shop, or maybe an engine shop and shed. Click here to see a close-up of No. 4 Apparently this is the same locomotive as the previous picture, but with a different tender. The lettering has been painted over on this tender, although you can still read it in the close-up view. Click here to see a close-up of the hopper cars. The last car is an ACL hopper and is different from the L&N cars. |
