In the access roadways to the last coal faces I worked on at Ellington there were some magnificent displays of toppled horizontal Lycopod trunks in the roof - great big things in criss-crossing jumbles. Those old forests must have been something to behold.
The trees at the very top of the seam when they've fallen over turn to coal, but the ones that remain upright turn to stone for some reason.
