Talk:H.B. Hays and Brothers Coal Railroad

Walton's Coal Incline
There is a U.S. benchmark in the general area of Becks Run called the "Walton's coal incline". Does anyone know if this is related to the railroad?

Exact track gauge
Does anyone happen to know the exact track gauge used on the H.B. Hays and Brothers Coal Railroad? I have successfully found sources for the precise, previously unknown/unproven track gauges of several other narrow gauge railroads, but for some reason I cannot find any good information for this railroad. The most likely candidate is, as it is the most common narrow gauge in the United States; however, in the western part of Pennsylvania where this railroad was located and during the same time, there were a few other narrow gauge railroads measuring and. is another possibility, as it became a popular choice for rail lines in US coal mines.
