An engine servicing facility for the JGL
#40
Hi Russ, my mention of interior walls was meant to refer to just the inside surface of the exterior walls, not walls between stalls. I agree there would not be any! I believe steamers were just about always brought into a roundhouse in a forward direction, mainly so there would be more space available to work on them, look at how close the tenders are in any photos you find with locos inside the roundhouse. Yet there is a good deal of space at the other end. I agree lubing would be perhaps the most important work done in the roundhouse. Does anyone know of models of grease guns and air compressors, etc?

Thanks Les and 88, and thank you Val and Bob for the links, will check them out after the game today (tomorrow!)
