Detroit Edison is Michigan’s largest electric utility. A great deal of that electricity is supplied by coal fired generators, and much of that coal arrives by train! Since Detroit Edison receives coal from mines in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Eastern Kentucky, and the Powder River Basin area, environmental factors must also be met as Western coal is properly blended with eastern coal.
In this DVD from Green Frog, you will see operations on seven major railroads, from the Powder River Basin to the Eastern coal fields, from the mines to the power plant. Detroit Edison’s locomotives also appear in many of these trains which include mid-train helpers.
Coal is transported on these Class 1 railroads: Grand Trunk, Conrail, Norfolk Southern, CSX Transportation, Burlington Northern, Union Pacific, and Chicago & North Western.
You will also see trans-shipment of coal from trains to Great Lakes vessels, these vessels then carry the coal to some of the power plants.
