As the Connecticut Eastern Railroad Museum is getting ready for the dedication of our Armstrong Turntable in early June, which we are calling `The Turn of the Century' has got me wondering about something.
In New England and the Tri-State Area are there any other Armstrong (hand turned) Turntables installed? I know there are at least 2 in Maine, Belfast & Moosehead Lake RR (recently re-installed) and on the Sandy River & Rangeley River RR. IIRC the SR&RR is the only other location that has an Armstrong table and a Roundhouse located on an original location.
Are there any other locations I have forgotten?
Thanks,
