[SEL] Old Welsh pit winding engine

[Richard Fink Sr]

Real interesting Dave. There at one time were a lot of under ground Coal 
mines in this area. Have worked in a few. Most were operated by large 
generators for electricity. to run pumps-fans and such. Only saw one that 
had a gas engine run the air fan.  There is two companys in the permit 
process now to open one new and one idel mine here.
