These are notes I am writing to help me learn our industrial history. They are my best understanding, but that does not mean they are a correct understanding.

Judging from a 1955 aerial photo, the coaling tower was southeast of the roundhouse.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the C&O roundhouse that still stands in Covington off Madison Avenue (15th St intersection)
ReplyDeleteI just came across some photos for that roundhouse: https://towns-and-nature.blogspot.com/2023/09/covington-ky-c-roundhouse.html
