Could the ramp be an artifact of one of the n.g. logging lines in the region? Perhaps removed from Mountain City or Shady Valley? Concerning the tunnel he mentions, I had heard of a tunnel on the

Hey y'all, I believe he is talking about tunnel 1 and being able to see it from the highway during the winter. As to the ramp, I think maybe he is referring to the coal ramp (?) on the west side of

Johnny, I believe I stated somewhere in all of my messages that we're talking about COMPLETE KITS (mechanism w/ can motor and everything else) for $300. I'm sure there will be some grumbling from a
