Anyone know why there are no Freightliner coal trains going into and out of Hull at the moment?

Question

I can see the railway line going into Hull from my office window, only EWS coal trains passing for the past two weeks.

Answer 1

I don't know why but i still get Frightliner coal tarins and EWS come pass my house

Answer 2

Perhaps the weather, maybe not as much coal is being used now its warmer, maybe EWS  have taken over from EWS.

Answer 3

That seems strange.  The only explanation i can think of is that it has got something to do with the major works been carried out in the hull docks area.

Answer 4

Nope, cant answer that one, but I will give you an educated guess.

we run coal trains going to a power plant at Boardman Oregon and for about 3 weeks to a month each year they shut the plant down for maintenance.

Perapas this is what is happening, the mill that coal mine is supplying is not needing coal for awhile.
