Captured sometime in the 1930s, this photograph shows Virginia and Truckee Railroad Locomotive No. 27 paused in Gold Hill, Nevada. To the left is the Miners' Union Hall, now gone.

In this ca. 1880 photo, wood is being gathered to power the boilers at Arizona's Silver King mine. This photo is interesting in that it shows cord wood for the boilers (on the right), and timbering for the mine (on the left) in the same view.
