The only hope for Mingo is that the furnace at Mingo is refurbished and that the furnace at Sparrows Point is having problems.
Yes, the ore trains are nice but the only change Ive seen has been nothing but gloom and doom. Id like to go back to just six years ago. Weirton, Steubenville, and Mingo all had their furnaces running. None where owned by forgien companys. And for the P&WV fans....we had the 416s!!
Just my thought...
