I don't think so - weren't the turbines taken out of service and stripped in the late 1960's or early 1970's? On a related note, how complete is the turbine at Ogden?

Interesting piece on the Silverton RR's corkscrew turntable above Silverton, Colorado. Includes description and photos from a 2000 visit to the site, which is said now to be threatened by development. http://soapysmith.faradic.com/corkscrew/corkscrew.html ryarger@rypn.org |
