    There was talk up here last winter (2013-14) of severe coal shortages due to too many trains hauling Bakken crude and just about running out of coal at the local power plant.

    Currently, we are experiencing a severe slowdown in the taconite industry, in the last 3 weeks 1400 have been laid off at two separate mines.
