I'm currently working on a Cambell's Idaho Springs Mine kit. It includes wooden rails along the platform walkway and says to space them to accommodate whatever ore cart (not included) I'll be using. My question is if the ore carts actually ran on top of these rails or if these wooden rails are meant to be guard rails. If the latter, should metal rails be installed inside them or did the small hand pushed ore carts ride on the flat platform? I've spent some time looking for prototype pics but haven't found what I'm looking for. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
