Here in southern DE, I get my electricity from a coal burning power plant—Indian River.
And that coal comes from West Virginia.
Stayed in West Virginia a few years ago-—took my wife to Milton to see Blenko Glass.
Around 10:30 pm in the hotel, I hear this noise—it keeps building and building until it was almost deafening—yup, a coal train barreling down the mountain behind the hotel.
Good thing I love trains.
LOL. Very few places in WV you can go where you won’t be awakened by a train during the night. Here where I live over downtown main street, one goes through at 2:00 a.m. every night. Right over the street overpass and on across the Ohio River. I love this town.
