Carr's Show Mine - Photographic Documentation (22/08/04)


Back to Carr's Mine Trip Index


This trip was thanks to Christine from the Nenthead Mines Heritage Centre. We took the complete show mine trip and photographed all the important and striking features. All of us where in agreement that this mine has been made to look very authentic, considering all the health and safety hoops the centre had to jump through.

If you want to have a look at how the mines looked and felt when they were working in prime condition then we really recommend you to do the show mine trip.
