For Modelcar. Thank you for your comments. Possibly you knew some of the miners since you lived in close proximity to the mine. It is a sobering thought when you put on your hard hat and light and enter the mine. The belt that holds the battery pack for the light has a numbered brass tag riveted to it. This is so the body of the miner can be identified after an accident and potential long sealing of the mine. The movie that was recently on tv, October Sky, pretty well depicts life of the miner.
