Fine stroke of strategy reshapes coal traffic routes
A July Manufacturers Record letter argues that a 90 mile Winston-Salem to Wadesboro line and a 65 mile link to Florence will create a direct rail corridor from the Pocahontas coal fields to the port of Charleston. It claims this bold move, pairing Norfolk and Western with Atlantic Coast Line, makes Charleston a premier coal shipping hub and boosts U S fuel commerce, with Charleston poised to rival traditional coal ports once Roanoke to Charleston links and terminal facilities are complete. The piece credits similar Carolina Clinchfield Ohio plans but says the Norfolk lines deliver a quicker, cheaper route, shrinking haul to about 480 miles and linking top bituminous coal supplies to global markets. Florence touts the potential for Charleston as a major Atlantic coal port in coming years.
