In 1954, 7741, a U-3a 0-8-0 built by Brooks in 1919 for the Big Four, prepares to move onto the turntable
Quiet? More like dead. Thank you Roger for posting that photo of a New York Central locomotive. Sure wish that the NYC had preserved some more. :teeth:
Interesting thing about 7741 is that she looks as modern as those built in NW's Roanoke shop some 25 years later. Thanks for a lovely memory, Roger
You know it's an interesting thing, When I was younger I went to the South Anderson Yard and saw the turntable there. Most of the Roundhouse was already gone. I took no photos. Arrrggghh!
Did the 0-8-0's ever see service in the East? Almost every 0-8-0 picture I've seen was in the mid-West.
