Decent but incomplete
World Museum of Mining的点评
点评：A decent museum of a part of US history that everyone should know about. It was hard to imagine the work conditions back then and how so many men risked and ultimately sacrificed their health and lives to make a living on supplying our country essential minerals.
As for what’s on site now and what visitors can ‘experience’, Cherry Wonderdog gives the museum a satisfactory rating. To begin, most of the town was a collection of stores in replicas that we could not enter. Peering through glass has its limitations. Even the “orchestrion” player-piano (at cost) was covered in faded glass. The mining apparatus seemed mostly authentic as was the mine and the towering structure above it. Signage was mixed – sometimes there was too much, sometimes not enough.
In general, I felt like more could be done rather than throw together a bunch of stuff from the era and have visitors fend for themselves to make sense out of the mishmash. For example, there could have been an introductory film of 5-10 minutes to set the context and explain what people were about to see. Even better, there could have been at least ONE staff member wandering the premises to answer questions. A museum like this begs for teaching, and presuming that everyone can educate themselves intelligently is unrealistic. It’s not fair that the only teaching comes from a guided door at additional cost, especially when the tours are so few and far between.

翻译：一个很棒的博物馆，展现了美国历史的一部分，每个人都应该了解。很难想象当时的工作条件，以及那么多人为了维持生计，冒着生命危险，甚至最终牺牲了自己的健康和生命，为国家提供必需的矿产资源。
至于现在的展品和游客可以“体验”的内容，Cherry Wonderdog 给博物馆的评价还算满意。首先，镇上大部分地方都是一些仿制商店，我们无法进入。透过玻璃看展品也有其局限性。即使是“管弦乐”自动钢琴（成本价）也覆盖着褪色的玻璃。采矿设备看起来基本真实，矿井和其上方的高耸建筑也同样如此。标识标牌参差不齐——有时太多，有时不够。
总的来说，我觉得可以做得更好，而不是把那个时代的各种东西拼凑在一起，让游客自己去理解这些杂乱无章的东西。例如，可以制作一部5-10分钟的介绍影片，介绍一下背景，并解释一下人们将要看到的内容。更好的是，至少可以安排一名工作人员在馆内走动解答疑问。像这样的博物馆需要教学，而假设每个人都能自学成才是不现实的。唯一的教学方式是额外收费的导览门，这很不公平，尤其是在导览班次如此稀少的情况下。
