- "You know it never fails to amaze me. Every day, I see something new. Today, it's the sight of a floating sack of coal no less."
- — Top Hat, High Tide
The Coal Yard is where Bigg City Port's coal supply is. Coal is essential to the industry as without it, the industry would grind to a halt. The Railhead is located nearby the yard.
Bio[]
In Sunshine, Hercules fills up with coal here in the morning before heading out on his big job up the coast. In Regatta, some of the tugs pass by. In Munitions, Hercules comes here to rest, although this is never seen. In the episode High Winds, Zebedee takes one of the coal barges from here to Johnny Cuba.
