I have been building along the current virginian project layout and was wondering if anyone can tell me what coal mine kit was used for the lower mine on the layout. I am going to he train show in Baltimore next weekend would like to purchase it .
It appears to be a kitbashed “New River Mining Company” from Walthers: http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/933-3017
According to the little calendar in the article, structures will be covered in the May issue.
I thought the source for that mine building was mentioned in the first article on the project. I’d look it up, but don’t have the issue now.
A large part of the mine does appear to be bashed from the Walthers New River Mine kit. The cylindrical loading silo is from somewhere else, I suspect one of the Walthers grain bins?
