| Josh Mackey posted Old Dennison round house at Dennison ohio. I just learned from watching a video on the PRR T1 trust that they're going to be putting there 5550 T1 together at Dennison is when I learned that the PRR panhandle went through there and was a major point on the railroad. Hope to see the they're T1 run when the day comes. Kevin Morris: In its heyday Dennison was a major PRR facility, especially during WWII. If you get the opportunity to visit the museum there you will be amazed by its history. Steven Pritchard: The museum is awesome... very kid friendly... and we'll priced... there is a layout of the original facility... I was there a few months ago and it was not working... but still cool to see. Brian Powell: Scott Krocker The Trains.com article says they built about 75 locomotives there in the late 1800s. https://www.trains.com/.../new-location-set-for-final.../ Andrew Goodwin: Dennison and surrounding area has a ton of railroad history. From my understanding, at one point this was the site of the largest railyard this side of the Mississippi. Anthony Thomas: PRR went through there to hold up the B&O from Haloway. Kevin Welch: Dennison Railroad Depot Museum has a N scale layout in the depot which shows to scale how the area was laid out. |
The T1 assembly building will be built across the mainline from the depot.

I included the railyards because of Andrew's comment.

RE Pearce posted five photos with the comment: "After a decade of research and restoration efforts, the Dennison Ohio Railroad Depot Museum was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2011 by the National Park Service, recognizing it as the most significant surviving example of a WWII-era railroad canteen in the nation. Today, the fully restored 1873 depot at 400 Center Street houses a museum with interactive exhibits on railroad history, WWII artifacts, a large model train layout, and attached rail cars including a children's interactive experience, a rare WWII hospital car, and a local history car."

| Jonathan Eau Claire commented on RE's post The museum is pretty nice, and fortunately the 2700 has been cosmetically restored. |
 |
| Alan Peters commented on RE's post In addition it’s gonna be the home of the building from scratch of a PRR T1 locomotive. |

Most of the N-scale layout. Note the backshops by the first roundhouse.
