On the opposite side of the Locomotive Works building various machines may be seen. At the far back of the shop is a large vertical lathe (pale green colour) for turning locomotive wheels. In front of that is a stack of wheels, or tires. In front of that is a gas ring for heating the tires. A wheel set rests in the gas ring. Closer towards the camera are what appear to be more lathes and a number of wheel sets without tires on the lower right. An overhead crane and rails are also visible on this side of the building, as well as in the previous photo. |
