Does anyone know of any historic films of mining trains in the USA? Seems like there's tons of stuff available about logging railroads but I've never seen or heard of any featuring early (not modern) mining railroads. I guess that "back in the day" logging RRs were more popular with railfans, or maybe the mining RRs had died out by the time railfanning became popular.
