| Description |
This is a loaded gondola car in a parked east-bound coal train at Rozet, Wyoming, USA on 27 May 2013. Loaded coal trains are common along this east-west line in northern Wyoming. The trains transport coal to various power plants, where the coal is burned to generate electricity. The coal is of sub-bituminous rank and comes from the Wyodak Coal, a 70 to 90 feet thick coal bed in the Fort Union Formation (Upper Paleocene). This is the thickest economic coal bed in America. It is extensively mined in the vicinity of the town of Gillette in Wyoming's Powder River Basin. This gondola car is owned by NRG Energy, which makes electricity. The "NRG" does not stand for anything - it is not an abbreviation or acronym. The letters were chosen by the company to simulate the word "energy". The gondola's previous owner was Texas Genco, a former energy company. The ownership abbreviation "TGNX" above the roster number on the car refers to Texas Genco. |
