Re: Wright coal mine (photos and aerial)

In the one photo of the Wright Fuel building it still shows RGS track in place? I have screen grabbed the aerial map location from Google but it sure would be nice if ROW Explorer could align this location with his ROW map 
Was this a mine or just a spur for Coal Loading? If you zoom back out on the Google aerial there looks like remains of a trestle and coal piles etc.
