Independence Mine
Main Power House
Victor, Colorado
1909
This was the main Power House located at Shaft No.1, next to the Engine house and served the machinery of the area with the electricty and steam and pwer for the mine and related machienry.
It orignally had 3 stacks and later 2 more were added. It was fed by a Coal House that sat next to it on a spur line from the Midland RR.
The Independence Straton Mine was one of the largest in the Cripple Creek District and was the site of one of the first lodes to be found by Edward Straton in the first years of the gold boom in that field. This huge mine complex contained a whole series of shafts, Mills, processing faciliteis and Ore Houses and delivered ore to the Midland and also to the Cripple Creek RRs on both standard and Narrow Guage lines. This complex will be details in a series of models to facilitate placeement as it also contined numberous smaller structures and a number of tramway ways and trestles Refer to the overall layout plan for correct placelement.
This series could not have been done without extensive reserach and the help of collegues in the Historical research field of the early mines of Colorado espeicaly including Linda Irene Tingvik with her kind permission, she also shared the historic Sandborn insurance maps that allows the creation of this complex
This model includes night and snow textures. It is medium poly so can be used for both MSTS and Open Rails.
Rights and Restrictions: you may freely use, rework and repaint this model, TSM source files is included. The only restriction is that this model may not be sold or used in commercial pay ware wthout my express permission. You can reach me at the e mail below. It may also be converted to Railworks, Trainz or any other sim format I would appreciate notice and a copy of your finished work.
Installation:
Place the shape and texture files into your route folders and add the ref entry to your ref list. I use the 257 texture setting so that this will correctly display both snow and night textures.
