There is also currently a slide listed on eBay showing a view in 1970 with  coal on the ground and the silos still in place. 
The switch into and tracks inside the facility were there in the mid 70s as the lead outside their fence is where road power reversed directions when coming from the roundhouse to couple onto trains in departure yard.
I often thought how time consuming it must have been to serve the place as it looked like you could barely fit one car and a switch engine beyond the inside switch.
