otiscnj...great looking model.I believe they are starting to dismantle part of the St. Nick breaker at this time.As kids we watched many coal trains coming out of the New St Nick breaker near Minersville.
I suggested to Walthers a few years back about doing an anthracite breaker complex like their steel industry series,maybe I'll start my e-mail campaign again.Could be they're working on it,just need to navigate through the epa regulations.

CharlieZ... awesome models!!
