Could someone provide a description of operations on the Hampton and Branchville- approximate train schedules, especially for the unit coal operation. Where and what time is best to photograph trains and roster shots of locomotives.

John Parker sent me some information on this topic so I am answering my own question. Not much is currently running on H&B. There are no unit coal trains delivered by CSX since NS now has the contract. John said that it appeared to him on a recent visit to the shop at Miley, SC that no trains had run in the past month.
