Close up of image 'lnwrrm1048' showing the cabin housing the operating equipment for the set of coal chutes mounted on the side of the plant. On the other side of the plant was another cabin used to operate the chutes mounted over the road which ran beneath the coaling plant. The 'jiggers were operated by a long handled lever set in the floor (similar to a signal or points lever) and was pulled and pushed to agitate the coal.
