Comments on: PRMX 6972 is seen heading south from Westmoreland’s Poplar River Mine to Saskpower’s coal fired plant just outside Coronach SK with the first coal load of the day. I am hard pressed to think of any other active railways in Canada that exist for the sole purpose of transporting coal from mine to power plant. Are there any others ? http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?
