Modules: Club Loop - Old Placerville
The Old Placerville Module is a companion module with the Placerville module. At this southwestern Colorado location, the RGS descended the hill, crossed Leopard Creek and turned towards Placerville on the bank of the San Miguel River. A stock pen and the Texaco bulk oil depot were located along the long spur here.
Old Placerville is the central table of the 3-table Placerville scene, and has the depot and the spur to the oil dock and stock pen. Most of the structures served by the railroad are accurate reproductions of those at Placerville. The red sedimentary rocks dominate the background and are extended beyond the Leopard Creek table to give continuity to the scene.
