By mid-century the task of hauling coal generally fell to 14 to 17 year old boys, called drivers, and the horses they led. Where seams were too narrow to permit the passage of horses (or adults), coal continued to be moved manually by boys on all fours dragging sledges. 2.

Under the compound system of mine ventilation developed by John Buddie, doors known as "traps" were introduced into mines.
