Moving a Turntable... Again...






The turntable has been relocated - again - from Cedar Flats to Northview.  The old west leg of the wye was cut and moved to line up with the turntable.  The center of the turntable is actually resting on the old concrete footing for the original Northview turntable... back before the wye was built, a turntable was used here for a short time.  Now things have come full circle (so to speak) and the wye has been replaced with a turntable.  Next project - building a new turntable at Redbud!  But this time, it will be located far above any flood plain...

  1. Looks good. Can't wait to see the other installed.

    1. Thanks! The new turntable is technically done, but not yet connected to the railroad. I am currently installing a switch for the turntable lead, then will have to build a small trestle to connect the switch to the turntable. I'll be posting an update on it soon!
