Les finaly got back to the gauge here is some photos of late 30's to early 50's strip mines. there are a lot of larger mines of the era but many smaller mines were still in opperation then by the mid to late 50,s most of the small opperations were gone and large was the norm. also one thing to rember a lot of coal was still shipped in gon's then.
