 Post subject: Nashville roundhouse
PostPosted: Wed Mar 24, 2004 11:38 pm 

As I was flying over Nashville yesterday, I noticed a railroad yard and large roundhouse on the edge of town. Can someone direct me to photos or information about this site?

Thanks,

That's Radnor Yard. It's a hump yard. Not sure if the roundhouse is still in use or not.

Here are some pictures off of a random site:

Incidently, the nearby Radnor Lake Wildlife Area is around the artificial lake built to provide water to the steam engines. It was a game preserve for the L&N bigwigs originally, and is a must see for visitors. Very beautiful.
