Adam's comments:
Willard, Ohio. The B&O roundhouse here was constructed between 1875 and 1876 and stood for 118 years before being demolished in 1994. The turn table still remains and is still used by CSX. The, now CSX, yard at Willard is still very active with Eastbound and Westbound hump operations. Images are 1959 at left, and 2012 at right. Much more info on the railroad in Willard can be found here: www.willardohio.com/history.htm,The Willard Ohio link is one reason for posting about a town so far away from Chicago --- it will be a good reference when I eventually work on the history of the B&O.

| Scott Griffith posted I know not B&OCT but its Willard yard, some of us worked the road into this place. [I labeled the post towerCoal, but that coaling structure is considered a coal dock.] Dennis DeBruler I just noticed the left end of a gantry crane. What kind of repairs would that be used for? |
