Our story of Tyneisha
For centuries the coal of northeast England went down the River Tyne to Newcastle and out to sea, so much of it that 'carrying coals to Newcastle' became the proverb for bringing something where there is already plenty. Tyneisha has nothing to do with the river; it was built in America from Ty- and the -neisha of its day. But it opens on the name of a working river that kept a country warm.
