    Not necessarily. Some power plants flip the cars over on their sides to unload them

    Now that you mention it, I was able to tour the University of Notre Dame's coal fired gen. plant before they decommissioned it and built more student housing. They rolled the cars into the main building and picked the cars up to dump them.
