Conditions Little Changed In Norfolk And Western Fields
The December third week saw coal output at 515 399 tons, down from 550 040 tons a week earlier. Car shortages persisted across Norfolk and Western fields, with equipment drops of 25 to 50 percent and supply lagging by a day or two. Western markets reduced demand as open top cars cut exclusive coal transport capacity, while western centers overstocked on smokeless fuel and low volatile coal amid weak tidewater demand.
