QUOTE: I recall seeing about 25 years ago a small "wagon mine" loading onto the team track at Brendel, Utah, loading three hoppers with so much coal that it was peaked above each car almost at a perfect angle of repose. He had to come back and reduce them. The coal went onto the ground and gradually was hauled away by locals to heat their houses and barns.
