The local enthusiast that live on the Newcastle coastline can monitor various services that relate to our coal industry. We can tune into the haulage trains, the coal loaders and even the ships.

 

Where is all this coal coming from ? what frequencies do the Hunter Valley power stations use ?, what can our fellow hobbyist in the valley tune into ? That was the question that I often thought about as I watched the ships move around the harbour.

 

With the Hunter Valley having large deposits of coal there are many interesting services to tune into such as mines, power stations and other companies that offer goods and services to keep mines and power stations running.
