Mill Scratch Build Mock-up

Just a couple shots on the Mill mock-up I'm beginning to work on.

Sources of info a little on light side, best so far is The Gilpin Railroad Era, Dan Abbot, Sundance Books.

The Mill is the 50 Gold Mine Mill (also called Bobtail Mill). It is large roughly 210 by 140 feet.

There are some wonderful support builds also including Hoist House, Tram line, Boiler House and Machine Shop.

Here is a photo:


And Here is the crude mock-up at 75% footprint to verify fit.


This is right at Main and Gregory looking upgrade.


Looking downgrade.

Thanks Cameron
