Description: In the foreground is a 6-ton gathering locomotive made by the Jeffrey Manufacturing Company of Columbus, Ohio in use at the Red Jacket Consolidated Coal and Coke Company, Red Jacket, West Virginia, 1927. Gathering locomotives gathered the coal cars from various working places in the mine and made up the long trains for the haulage locomotives to pull out of the mine. An overhead electrical cable supplied power to the locomotive by way of a trolley arm pickup. View on Ohio Memory.
