The Wolfram Rd. crossing is located west of Portage, near the east end of Lewiston Siding. First, Amtrak #8 blazes by. Then, an eastbound loaded coal or coke train powered by ES44AC CP 8855 and AC4400CW CP 8654 comes through, after leaving the siding where it was overtaken by #8.

Coke is more of a gray color also when cooked it looses alot of its density there becoming less heavy than coal

It seems like the only coke train with good power is 891.

coke is made from coal, they bake coal in an airless furnace so it becomes almost pure carbon. It looks pale compared to coals usual black.

What do you mean by coke train?
revolution1one 2 years ago
Coke is a specific type of coal, I'm not sure how to tell the difference by looking at it.
