Elvas Tower: FORKS CREEK COMPLEX - Elvas Tower

Forks Creek Complex. One of many buildings located along the Colorado & Southern (C&S) railroad located in Colorado.

Information for the model gathered from plans from “Up Clear Creek On The Narrow Gauge” by Harry Brunk: “Part 61: The “New” Forks Creek Eating House.” This model is best a best guess and you have any information on this structure or Forks Creek area please share.

NOTE: This is a very high poly model. (10,269 polygons) Though tests in MSTS encountered no issues, the authors suggest (BUT NOT REQUIRED) using Open Rails for better results.

****NOTE!!!**** Some users may experience texture issues if run in MSTS with settings above default.

Source model included

Made in Sketchup 8.
