Nice shot! is there still a lot of coal industry in your area? here in the UK we have very little coal industry left now, and they recently closed the Ystrad Mynach Cwmbargoed coal mine and colieries in the Taff Bargoed Valley Coalfield of South Wales,UK and are looking to close many of those in my native area of South and West Yorkshire around Rotherham and Barnsley South Yorkshire,UK. Sadly these were all heavy coal mining areas with high unemployment and very little in the way of other tradtional industries such as steel and iron ore and are now considered "Deprived Areas".

I like how pretty much the entire diesel era history of the line in Ocono is documented in just six shots.
