Tim Starr posted At street level it's probably easy to miss the fact that the defunct Chesapeake and Ohio roundhouse and shops still stand in downtown Covington, KY. |
Steve Russo
posted nine photos with the comment: "I don't know if this roundhouse was ever posted before, but I stumbled upon it by accident while in Covington, Kentucky last weekend. The only thing I know is that it was originally C & O, and now I believe it houses a private company."
Jay Piper: C&O! That’s cool! I had always thought it was L&N.

Dennis DeBruler commented on Steve's post This is one of the few times that I have seen where a roundhouse is not properly depicted on a topo map. 1914 West Cincinnati @ 62,500 and 1952 Newport @ 24,000 |
