This shot taken from the west end of the Stores building looks east towards the Roundhouse. Here you can see the Roundhouse Machine Shop. The big doors you see behind the parked cars are Track 6 that went directly through the Machine Shop into the Roundhouse. To the left you see the Stores Track and platform. And on the right is the Mechanics Shop. Now for those who pay attention to detail, if you look to the very end of the Stores platform you can see through to the Service Track Oil House, and just behind rests an MLW switcher. Another story here... take note of that tapered ramp at the very end of the Stores platform. That ramp was in two sections. One went straight off the end toward that switcher, (not in view here), and the other was 90 degrees right of the platform. There is a roadway around these ramps that goes past the Roundhouse to the service area out back, but it does not go beyond that point. Being downtown there were always people driving into the property and making their way around there trying to find a short-cut to the Marina on False Creek. One night while I was on shift these two clowns come roaring down Drake Street, into the property, through the parking lot, around the ramps and Roundhouse, past my office, and ended up by the Oil House you see in the photo, which was just past my office. I went out to see what these guys were doing and they did a u-turn high-tailing it back out the way they came. Being somewhat over the legal limit (alcohol), they shot past the Roundhouse and out to the parking area in the photo. The only problem was, the driver didn't remember the ramp was there! So he hit the side of the end ramp with his right front tire, went up in the air, then the car did a left twist with a face plant into the side of the other ramp you see in the photo. Well, I heard this great crash and went over to check it out only to see these idiots staggering around the area wondering what the hell happened. I called the cops and they dragged them and the "totaled" car out of there. Just another night on the job - 1980 Andy Cassidy.
