Just out of idle curiosity, does anybody have details on the RS-1 which Morton Salt used at the Himrod mine? What was its heritage, and where did they send it after the mine shut down?
A tentative agreement was in place in spring 1977 for its sale which likely would have seen it sent to the Virginia & Maryland. But just before the deal was formally executed, Morton backed out, citing their possible need for the unit at another of their mines, not located in NY. I have no details on where that other location was, nor whether the unit actually did go there.
Any further info, or pics?
