I have been asked by a friend if I knew how coal was loaded on to railway wagons around the turn of the century. He is a model railway enthusiast and has a layout based on a branch line in the Nottinghamshire coalfield which includes a mine. He would like a photo of a typical building for this operation which I suppose would be called a bunker so that it can be included on the layout. As my interests lay in hard-rock mining I have only a scant knowledge of coal! Can anyone point me in the right direction with either an internet source or a book, etc?
