Jimmy, re Extra 487, the Lumberton Turn, what's the story behind the 9 cars of company coal picked up there on the return trip? During the week several coal empties were dropped off there. Is coal mined near there? Or did they empty out the coal tipple that was apparently frozen earlier in the week? Just curious!

George, I sincerely apologize about the delay in getting a response to you.
I notice now that a response has been posted and that is much appreciated.
I would just add that I am pretty sure it was not coal from the coal tipple.

Jimmy
