- Heat Drier Building
- Description:
- 'On the top level of the heat drier building showing, from left to right, the motors, blowers and tops of the cyclones. The vertical tubes are exhaust stacks for the waste heating gases and moisture. The driers themselves are long, vertical tubes, located beneath this deck. A blast of hot gasses dries the coal and the cyclones then separate the coal from the waste gasses and moisture. Purpose of the drying operation is to reduce the moisture acquired in coal washing, 'or from the atmosphere during storage on the stock pile', and provide the processing plant with a uniform charge material.

- Lump Coal Being Loaded onto Railroad Cars
- Description:
- 'All sizes of 'White Oak' prepared coal are loaded into railroad cars with loading booms to minimize breakage and preserve the best appearance of the coal. It would be useless to carefully mine and screen our coal if we did not use proper care in loading it into the railroad cars. These booms lower to the bottom of the car when it is first placed under the tipple for loading, and raised from time to time as the car fills up. Note how perfectly screened this lump coal appears on the boom! Not a sign of slack to be seen. Treated for dust if desired.'
