Large Saloon located in Arrow, Colorado, the small short lived town that was for a while located at the end of the line of the Denver Northwestern & Pacific Railroad, as it was being extended over the Rollins Pass on the route that came to be known as the Moffat Road after its founder David Moffat. This town was a busy place full of up to 200 railroad workers, construction gang men, shopkeepers, hotel keepers, Saloon owners, and ladies of the sporting houses. The town faded quickly away after around 1916 and by 1918 when it burned down, it was almost empty. There were seven bars and taverns in town, and some dance halls and sporting house. There were at one point 200 people receiving mail at this post office but it closed in 1918. The Elk was the largest Saloon in Arrow and noted for its many activities, dances, roulette wheels and lavish supply of spirits.
This model is released open source, you may alter, use and adjust it to your needs, i only ask that the use be of good quality and well founded on your sources. It is intened for use on the Moffat Road Restoration project, to be in both MSTS/Open Rails and Trainz format, but may be used for any town or location of the era 1880 to 1950 as countless buildings of this size and type were built in the over 6000 small towns of Colorado alone as well as across the American west.
I would appreciate receiving a picture and a copy of any changed format you may create.
Textures are based on actual photographs and are as close to the original as possible, the main sign is an actual exact one based on the original sign.
My thanks to many including Steve Thompson, Tim Muir, Barry Munro, Jeff Farquar, John Fleming and many others who have helped me learn to use TSM and to make assets for the MSTS rail sim and others.
My thanks to John Emmot and the Denver Salt Lake Historical Society for source information and history.
