Does Norfolk Southern haul any anthracite coal?

Not that I've heard. Having lived in Norfolk (and Virginia Beach and environs) for about 15 years off and on, I'd say that they haul bituminous. I know there was a plan back in the 80's to run a pipeline from the coalfields to the Lambert Point docks in Norfolk, to pump a coal slurry. I don't know if the NS had anything to do with the failure of that pipeline to be built, but I do know they haul some pretty long drags of 100-ton coal hoppers behind their locos.
