Outdoor Machinery Day

Outdoor Machinery Day

Presented by Western Museum of Mining & Industry at Western Museum of Mining and Industry

Experience the Power of Mining and Industrial Machines!

If you have not been to the Mining Museum in a while - this is the day to go! We bring in a team to operate the authentic Osgood Steam Shovel (like the beloved children's book,  "Mike Mulligan and his Steam Shovel"). We will fire up the trammer and mucker, two machines used in hauling ore, and The Yellow Jacket Stamp Mill will also be open.
