It's not often that Old King Coal Mining Co #1 tipple is devoid of cars, and so an enterprising railfan took the opportunity to take lots of pictures of the tipple yard tracks, the sawmill (for making mine timbers to hold up the roof), the company town of William, WV, and the William train station--end of track for the Duckunder subdivision.

Hope you enjoy the pictures of George Lasley's craftsmanship.  George is a genius!

Will, very impressive craftsmanship by Georgre and captured in your photos.

My eye, however, is not sufficiently discerning to recognize the differences between many of the photos depicting the same scene; i.e., they appeared to be exact duplicates or differences too nominal for my eye to discern. 

For example, the saw mill photos seem to contain some duplicates, even triplicates.

I mention this only because my trust is that if you posted a particular photo, you did so with a particular purpose in doing so.  And I found myself trying to discern differences between photos to little, but often, no avail. 

SUGGESTION ONLY:  Use the edit function and cull out the duplicate and near duplicate shots and make your photo post a better experience for the reader/viewer.
