Chasing Delmarva's Last Coal Trains | Part 2

If you haven't seen part one of Chasing Delmarva's Last Coal Trains, then we suggest watching that video first: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aT3a_vdTcPM&t=1496s In part 2 of this video, two more empty coal trains have arrived on the Delmarva Peninsula to load the remaining coal at the NRG powerplant at Indian River, Delaware. In our previous video, part 1, we introduce on how NRG has retired the coal fired unit and how NRG needs to get the remaining coal out. In December, the final empty coal trains has come down onto Delmarva to load on coal that was stored in the powerplant's underground bunkers. In part 3, we will chase the loaded coal train back up north.
