N Scale Train Layout
building a n Scale Model Train layout, what kind of coal mining equipment was used in 1950-1960?
links please, building coal mine in n scale, need to know what kind of coal mining equipment was available in 1950-1960
In the US, due to the advancements in Heavy Equipment, Strip Mining became the most popular method of mining in the 1950-60's.
By 1912 surface mining was conducted with steam shovels designed for coal mining.
Though deep mining still went on in places like West Virginia - still does.
A quite typical site in the Appalachians this coal washer hasn't changed in 100 yrs.
