Turntable
The 70' turntable,
used to turn locomotives, or any other vehicle, can be seen here,
with 5572 and 6101 in the background. The turntable can either
be moved by pushing the poles which can be seen in their stored
position, or winding the handle via some gears. The current turntable
is not the original one, that was a 65' over girder type, removed
before the GWS had the site.
