Northern Pacific Turntable


Northern Pacific Turntable, c1948

Looking east, c1948, the Northern Pacific turntable was located midway between the Diesel Shop and the Roundhouse. ("A" Street SE runs behind the cars carrying poles.) A locomotive on the turntable could be turned around, and headed into a stall for service.
