Rail to Barge Coal Transfer Facility, E-W

Rail to Barge Coal Transfer Facility, E-W

This is a functioning industry-enabled facility for transferring coal from trains to river barges with coal stackers for use as intermediate storage. The coal storage piles are animated so that they grow and shrink in size as deliver and remove coal. Because of the dighole required for the pit, the rotation of this model is limited, and only allows the length of the model to be aligned east-west. See kuid2:124017:10122:1 for a version that can be aligned north-south.

The industry supports moving loading/unloading. I set the maximum allowed speed for the loading/unloading somewhat high (~ 11 mph) so that you don't need to be extremely precise with your speed, but for more realistic operation, try to stay around 5 mph while unloading trains. Vulcan's ore barges (kuid2:60238:15041:1) work best with this industry while loading with a speed of 3 to 4 mph.

coal storage capacity = 95,000 tons (= 86,000,000 kg) (= 100,000,000 L)
max loading/unloading speed = 11 mph (= 18 km/h)

Revision History:
- v3: Added an additional loading track for older barges that use track at -7m below the water surface.
- v2: Change to allow height adjustment.
