The Main purpose of this project is to bring a world that existed several decades ago, into the present. Using Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) and information from coal mining historians, we will attempt to recreate the heart and soul of the coal mining towns, the company store.

The overall intentions are to educate newer generations on the history of coal mining towns.  Since company stores are now non-existent, we will recreate a virtual store, where visitors will be able to enter the various levels of the structure, see some of the available products, and take a virtual shopping trip.
