Sorry- I meant "was" not "is".  All that is visible on the satellite image on the Google page is the "footprint," or outline of the former roundhouse location. Thanks for the quick reply, Pete.

  There is no "large roundhouse" near the Holdrege St. viaduct....\

  What was the CB&Q roundhouse is southwest of Haymarket Park.  All of the old roundhouse is gone now, but the current "diesel shop" is on the old roundhouse location.

  I think that the turntable is still there, but I'm not certain.

  If your looking at at satellite map the RH location is south of O St..  There is a newly constructed overpass from O St. to the Diesel shop over the new coal bypass track(s).  The street coming off of O St. over the overpass to the diesel shop is called, as unlikely as it might seem...."ROUNDHOUSE DRIVE".

  Pete

  Folks-

  Does anyone know whose large roundhouse is a short ways southwest of the Holdridge viaduct, south of Haymarket Park?
