Colliers

Old American weekly

Colliers is a coal mine or the workers in one.

The singular collier can mean a coal miner, a ship that transports coal, or the mine itself.

The term is largely historical, tied to Britain's coal-mining past: The colliers went on strike for better wages.

A fleet of colliers supplied the city with fuel.
