RI&C Fan House

Photo of RI&C Fan House
Mile Mark: 30.10
Elevation: 1780'
Date: unknown

This fan house provided ventilation to the mines in the Robertsdale area. It used a 12' centrifugal fan to force the air down the shaft, possibly leftover from Mine No. 3.

Although the roof of the building is gone, the fan assembly is intact as well as its chain drive. The structure is across the hill from the EBT tracks near the Mule Barn.
