Very nice image and interesting info about the coaling towers. I would not have recognized them as such.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Shelly. These two that are standing still were for the freight locomotives. There were a couple of smaller ones on the side that were for passenger locomotives. I'm not sure when they were torn down.
