This was what was confusing me as Ive seen the MM Mill, it was a very large plant, any idea when it was built ? .
The number of mines and the way they came and went makes it hard to make this route accurate, all I can do is throw in stuff as I find it and make several versions, removing items from some and adding them to others. Thanks for all the info , its refreshing to be able to talk to someone else who has an interest in this era as with most modellers they either don't know much about older railroads so they don't have much to say, or they are interested in modern , class one roads . we do have a number of NG modellers but we don't seem to communicate much.
