Re: Coal Miner Killed In Cave-in
My grandad was a coal miner. He propped up the coal face prior to blasting so it *hopefully* wouldn't collapse onto the men. A very dangerous job!!

Poor blokes. Working conditions must have been awful. Good Photograph. Mines still creep me out, even the open cut ones. |
