Altoona, WI: C&NW Roundhouse and Railyard

Roundhouse: (Satellite)

Chicago & North Western Historical Society posted
Someone wanted to see a photo of the C&NW roundhouse at Altoona, Wisconsin. Here is such a photo taken by an unknown photographer at an unknown date. The photo is from the John Kamacher collection.

Saving an image of the roundhouse remnants in case UP ever reuses the land.

Normally, railyards have lost some of their classification tracks. In this case, it looks like the yard has grown.

This must be a major location on the UP system for them to hold a Big Boy open house here.
