I figured when I rebuilt this page that maybe a direct link to the drawing that made this model possible was in order... So, I added in the drawing, hope it can be of some use.

Model can now be found and downloaded from the Trainz Download Station - Look up KUID2:77573:25021:1. Or use my main Downloads page (TRS2004 or newer only) for a link to the file at the Trainz Download Station.
Or, you can just click here on this Direct Link, need Download Helper and installs direct into Trainz, or Content Manager if TRS2006 or newer.

Thanks to a good friend of mine, and some luck, I was able earlier this year to get my hands on 5 old issues of an mining oriented journal called The Engineering & Mining Journal from 1903.
One of those issues had an article called The Head Frames of Shafts at Cripple Creek,(1.) and it is in that article I found a drawing for this head frame.
The article don't say very much about this particular one as it is of a more generic type, but the following info I found at least some interesting:
The small two-post frame is a typical frame for prospecting shafts up to about 300 ft. in depth. It is simple in construction, and serviceable. It is usually mortised, but may be simply toe-nailed. The writer has seen one with no mortises in it doing good service.
Thanks to that article I was able to make my self a generic little head frame to be used all over so to speak, and when I get around to it I also have other head frames to make, including another smaller type one.
For me modeling a mining area on the computer it is a good idea to use 1 item many times, makes it a little less hard on the computer, hopefully not many will sort of notice it is the same frame over and over and over... 
By adding different hoist houses (first on the list, make some...LOL) and other stuff I think I can vary the scenes to look not that alike. But, we see, it's in the future so to speak.
