Hello all, I was wondering if anybody here knew of more photos of the nee-C&O roundhouse in Convington, KY. It is presently owned by Duro Bag, and is located at 1301 Madison Ave. This is a somewhat obscured photo of the turntable side of the building. http://railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=175471 Using the address above one can find a recent aerial photo at [url]maps.google.com[/url] This article from 2002 states that Duro Bag was planning to demolish an "office" building on the site. (I suspect that this would have been the roundhouse machine shop). Did this come to pass? http://www.kypost.com/2002/12/19/duro121902.html Tom Cornillie |

It was still there as of May 2003. I saw it then with no indication it was about to be torn down. |
