Reply to Pete: from 1935 until we moved to South Jersey in January 1950.
As I recall, homes were still coal heated. and the local coal yards advertised
'hard coal' on their wood fences and on their trucks. Don't know what the
RR's were using by that time. CNJ was still using camelback 4-6-0's and
2-8-0's along the Long Branch; were they not designed to use hard coal (wide
firebox above the rear driver) ?
