I am looking for the member who had access to Bituminous Coal shipments directions historical data out VA, WV, and KY carried by basically the C&O/N&W/Virginian (Pokey Roads) East to Tidewater (Hampton Roads) vs. West (midwest or Great Lakes ports).
Al, check any major University library that's close by to you, as they might have a federal document depository. There you want to find a copy of the Minerals yearbook. A look at the copy I own (1950 edition) shows the Fed's did have bit coal production data going back to 1890 but in this volume the data by state only covers a 10 year span.
