Vintage railroad Turntable. Built in 1890 by Carnagie Steel. 100' long. In very good condition, Railstation was D-H Roundhouse. Asking $100,000.00. Rail siding is on property to reload for transport. Serious inquiries only.

Listing is out of Chicago, but map, listing info, and Google Earth confirm this to be the TT outside the Rouses Point, NY ex-D&H seven-stall roundhouse (still standing).

Any info? More importantly, any serious interest?

Nice sand tower there too. Package deal?

Been on there in the past as well. The consensus I remember was that it wasn't a legitimate listing (Possibly at the Railroad.net forum).

Edit: This was probably the thread that I remember.

In a recent conversation, seller contends that they will "consider all offers for purchase."

$100,000 is ridiculous. How about "free"? As most of us know, it's going to be costly to move.
