Throughout the weekend, I noticed at times that the smoke coming out of the funnels wouldn't be quite the usual black that I was used to and at times the color was downright strange - almost yellow or mustard color. My hypothesis here is that its due to high sulfur content of the coal being used. The strong odor in the air may have contributed to that thought.
Shay #5 is currently putting out some of that stranger looking smoke out.
