 Post subject: Locomotive discovered beneath banks of coal
PostPosted: Mon Jul 16, 2001 9:48 am 

In Cumbola PA, near Pottsville in the anthracite coal regions, a worker discovered a mine lokie buried in a culm bank. Here's a link to the Pottsville Republican story: http://www.pottsville.com/pub/2001/Jul/14/E479314A.htm

In nearby Ashland, Pioneer Tunnel Coal Mine operates a similar lokie as part of its mine tour (they use a battery motor in the mine) http://www.pioneertunnel.com/
