Handling coal at Hoboken in the ’80’s

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 July 2012

Extract

A Scientific American of 1882 contains an article, with several illustrations, describing the gravity coal piers of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad, at Hoboken, New Jersey. The enormous traffic in coal carried on at this port, says this author, requires broad, cheap and rapid methods of handling large quantities at once.
