    I might post some later.

    Its pretty well gown up with weeds & brush.

    In the forum, on the Clinton Yard thread, there is a link to one of Don's photos of the yard posted by Dale Rush.

    In Don's photo of the yard, the horizontal tank is not present.

    However, in the later photograph it is present.

    I believe the tank was not used for water, but diesel fuel.

    This is the 1st time I've heard of a ready track.

    Is the ready track just to the side of the roundhouse.

    If you study Don's photo looking south at the yard from the tower there is something that resembles a water tank shape just to the left of the roundhouse.

    Could this be it?

    Thanks again for all these photos Don.

    I have a feeling I could spend all day browsing your collection. :)
