Atlas Coal Mine Historical Site is Canada's most complete historic coal mine and is home to the country's last standing wooden coal tipple, and the largest still standing in North America. Built in 1937, the tipple is a coal loading and sorting machine. At over 7 storeys tall the tipple now serves as a reminder of the rich mining history of the Drumheller Valley. Old mining equipment, including a working pre-1936 battery powered locomotive and several buildings including the wash house, supply house, lamp house, and mine office still stand at the site.
