Does anyone have any photos or drawings of any NYC&HRRR roundhouses & turntables circa 1880s-1890s? John Bartolotto
John, I sure don't. You might want to try the two Yahoo sites that are dedicated to the New York Central. Just go to Yahoo and look in groups. There are some old NYCS hands there that may be able to help you. Another source would be the NYC System Historical Society journal, the "Central Headlight." Good luck. :teeth:
John, have you tried to use Google? I have found that once you get past the obvious and mundane returns, there are some valid ones...of course they might be on Page 13 or 24, but hopefully you will find something before boredom sets in....sorry I can't give anything more rewarding.
Thanks guys. Tried all three with little luck. I have photos of roundhouses and turntables from that time period but no good full shots of any belonging to the NYC&HRRR. I used to belong to the NYC System Historical Society but it proved antiquated, did not return answers to my questions and they never even sent me a notice that my membership was up. Their books are great though. John Bartolotto
