Coaling stations are facilities used primarily in the 19th and early 20th centuries for refueling steamships with coal. They were strategically located along major shipping routes to allow vessels to replenish their fuel supplies during long voyages. These stations often included storage facilities, loading equipment, and sometimes even repair services for ships. With the transition to oil and other fuels, the significance of coaling stations diminished, leading to their decline.
