Here's the prelude:
All need be done, is to create a large circular track... where... it is all down hill from the mines... so, the coal will deliver itself. Actually the process will run away, if not restricted. The idea is to load coal at the mines, and the weight of the loaded coal plus cars hauls the empty cars back up the hill to the mine in a continuous loop process.
