Timbering in Underground Anthracite Mines (Part 2)

[gragor11]

Thanks. Glad you found some miners that knew how to do this before they passed on.

I worked in a silver lead zinc mine in the yukon and the walls were covered in lagging in square sets to the point were you really couldn't see the walls or the back.

I nipped what seemed like a million flatcars of timber in that mine but never got to see it going in.

Now I can picture how it was done.
