This postcard view of the massive Colorado-Philadelphia Mill, and the Standard Mill helps give the impression on how huge these mills can be, laying in the outskirts to the west of Colorado City, with what I believe is the mainline of the Colorado Midland seen along the bottom edge.
If I am correct the structures to the right are part of the Standard Mill, while the ones furthest away, left side of the card, those are the structures of the Colorado-Philadelphia Mill.

This view made me scratch my head as it was listed as being in the District, but that it can't be as no place in the Cripple Creek District do it look like this, but, it got my head go looking and I ended up with this is a scene looking west up at Divide, Colorado! The cut seen must be the former grade of the Colorado Midland, where there still is a spur to some form of Industry as there is a planked trestle way to get to the top of those boxcars standing at end of the spur.

I seen this view several times claiming to be along the Short Line, but it really is a view along the Colorado Midland, later Midland Terminal grade in Ute Pass, looking out of Tunnel No. 3.
