Im thinking of producing O gauge coal loads to sell on ebay, or on here i guess for that matter! A few times a year I keep myself current working at a sort of local underground anthracite coal mine. Ive made coal loads for my hoppers and am curious if there is any interest in actual hand mined coal. would be sort of a novelty, could send some pics from inside the mine, and the vein where it comes from. as a bonus, is anyone familar with "blue coal"? it was a colliery in Ashley Pa. It was a marketing ploy, they sprayed blue dye on the coal, and you were to remember to "always buy blue coal for the best heat" anyways, when they were tearing down the breaker a few years ago we got a few sacks of this dye and I have enough of it to last a lifetime. i can put up some pics a little later. Just curious if there is any interest to see if its worth my time. I was thinking around $5 for a carload.
