Here's the St. Paul roundhouse in Ontonagon, Michigan in 1909. There is a gallows armstrong turntable in front of the house.  The coal dock is to the right behind the caboose. Notice the cattle grazing in the right of way with one standing under the water
tank. This is from a post card that I have edited to remove the yellowing.
This photo is from the David V. Tinder Collection of Michigan Photography at the University of Michigan Library.
