SCENES ALONG CABIN CREEK

Part of the town of Leewood, WV with a portion of the Catenary Coal Co. processing plant in the background.

The remaining coal camp houses in Leewood. Arnold Miller, former president of the UMWA, hails from Leewood.

There are only a handful of houses left in the coal camp of Red Warrior, Kanawha County, on Cabin Creek. Before long, Catenary Coal's big drag line up on the hill may mine over the rest of the camp.

A few of the remaining company-built houses in Decota, Kanawha County, where the Carbon Fuel Co. Carbon No. 3 mine was in the 5 Block seam of coal.

This post is one of the only reminders of the largest coal company that operated on Cabin Creek - Carbon Fuel Co. The other companies that owned major coal mines in Cabin Creek Hollow include Truex-Trayer Coal Co., Republic Steel, and Bethlehem Steel.
