If you want to get a good idea of coal customers you might look at the Norfolk Southern's web page at www.nscorp.com. They have an excellent list of customers. The industrial customer list has a wide range of industrial applications that could be modeled. <br /> <br />I'm modeling the MIssissippi Lime Company's vertical and rotary lime plants at Ste. Genevieve, Missouri. Coal is brought into the plants by train to fuel the kilns and lime is taken out. in bulk in hopper cars and bagged/bulk in boxcars. I'm also going to model the barge loading facilty on the Mississippi river at the Little Rock landing. Across the river is a relatively new coal barge loading facility that really looks interesting.
