TRHA Annual Train Show Report - Part 3

Click on each image for a closer look!

Continuing our coverage of the TRHA Train Show on May 28th and 29th, we turn to the rides that were offered on our restored 120 turntable which is used to move engines and equipment onto the different storage tracks radiating out from the turntable. This turntable is the longest surviving turntable in Canada. The turntable is operated on air pressure just as the original was. We use a large compressor to keep it moving.
