Hi
I got one more roundhouse that I am looking for information on? The roundhouse is the Brunswick, Maine Roundhouse.
I rode a 470 railroad club trip back in the year 2000, the trip ran from Brunswick, Maine to Rockland, Maine, and return. I riding the trip, I saw this ExMaine Central 4 stall roundhouse, and came back the following day and took the photo.
What I would like to know, is the roundhouse still standing? It was in pretty bad shape when I took the photo. Any information will be appreciated and Thanks, Pat
The attached photo has some information on it,

Looks like it's no longer with us. While scanning slides last winter I found a shot of it I'd taken
in the spring of 1977 and wondered the same thing. It is not visible in Google Earth.

Forgot to mention I'd read somewhere that it was originally eight stalls.
