Coal Loading Drop Reported by N&W

The Norfolk and Western Railway loaded 12,957 50-ton equivalent
cars of coal last week, a drop of 1,683 form the previous week's
14,640 loadings.
During the week ending Feb. 9 of last year the total was 17,804.
However an N&W spokesman said the total last year was cut during the
aftermath of floods which hit Western Virginia.
The daily breakdown last week: Monday, 1,702; Tuesday, 1,952;
Wednesday, 2,889; Thursday, 3,196; Friday, 2,941; and Saturday, 277.
