Hear the shrill whistle of the Western Museum of Mining & Industry’s 1928 Osgood Steam Shovel. Learn how compressed air locomotives replaced the poor mule in hauling mountains of ore, and then see one rumble out of the past and down the track. Last, but not least, walk into the Museum’s operating gold refinery. Listen to the stories describing the dangers of being a mill man. Understand how technology from the industrial revolution helped our ancestor’s hew a living out of Colorado’s hard rock, and then brace yourself as the kinetic energy of the 1890’s refinery vibrates alive. Customary Admission applies. Members free.
