Class 58 locomotives hauled 32 car trains of coal to Ironbridge Power Station in June 1998. The trains carried about 1300 tons of coal and were pulled through the unloader at about 2.7 mph. This video shows the operation from the locomotive cab, the ground and the overhead walkways inside the unloading shed. Many thanks to everyone who helped in the making of this video.
