Coal stockpile silo left at Kermit, Mingo County. Belt conveyor at
Kermit. The tipple was torn down but these were left. Future plans may be to rebuild so they were left.
Coal train loading took place here at Kermit, compltet with conveyor belt. It is possible
that since these were taken, the remains have been torn down.
The remains of a hoist headhouse at Eastern Associateds Kopperston mine. The tipple was torn down
and this is a remnant that has escaped.
A shot from the back showing how time and the elements have taken their toll. And finally
my favorite, the hoist house after a rain.
