Bernie Feltman	General	What is that contraption to the right of the S2?	2/10/2010 3:55:03 PM

Chuck Zeiler	General	Bernie, I think it's a coal conveyor, left over from the days of steam. It must have been quite an engineering marvel, since it apparently pulls the coal up from below. I recall that the roundhouse was elevated above the streets, as were all the tracks.	2/10/2010 6:43:12 PM
