There is an abandoned roundhouse at East Binghamton, NY, also others at West Lebanon, and Bartlett, NH. I'm not sure if the B&M shops at N. Billerica, MA still are standing or not, but they were probably closer in size to what you're looking for. The former D&H shop complex at Watervliet, NY lies empty and abandoned as well.

Thanks for the compliment, T.J.--Hume, Bob, Rob, Boyd and I appreciate it. However, I have to qualify the title of your post. This Web site is just a place to exchange views, news and best practices in our field. The future of preservation is where the work is being done--in the museums and tourist lines, on the trains, in the shop, at the gift store counter, at the information booth, and in the development office. RyPN is secondary--the people who do the work are primary.

But back to the main topic--one can always start by trying to bring them up right--here's my son having a close encounter with BC&G 14 in Gaithersburg this past weekend. Of course, he also has Harold the Helicopter in hand, so maybe he'll end up in aviation preservation...

Does anyone know what railway this Excursion Train is from? I've never seen or heard of it before, and assume it must be from below the '49.
Thanks in advance
