South Wenatchee, WA: Great Northern Roundhouse and Backshop

(Satellite, the stalls are gone, but you can see the foundation of some of the walls. Actually, there are also up to four dots where a stall wall used to be.)

Undated Great Northern Railway Roundhouse, Turntable, Shops and Appleyard, South Wenatchee, Washington. This was Eastern Terminal for electric operations with facilities for both electric and steam locomotives. On right side of photo is a large icing platform for servicing 
Refrigerated cars filled with apples that were sent East. Columbia River visible on right.

It looks like just the backshop was still standing in the oldest aerial I could find, 1957. [ARA001600030063]
