Skywalking. Looking down from atop Kopper Glo's massive 8,000 ton storage and loadout silo, NS backs mtys up the hemlock shrouded steep grade in preparation for loading coal. The large prep plant is over the hill at the end of the beltline to the right, and must send coal over the ridge to top off the 10,000 ton unit train before it heads south to one of the numerous Georgia Power utility plants. A bevy of both deep and strip mines fed the plant at this time, though many have been closed or idled now.
