Back in the days when a stable of switchers (and a turntable!) were kept at Woodstock, we see CP 8459 working the west end of the yard.

  1. Great shot! Maybe OSR can pick up a RS-3 and recreate the scene :) where was the turntable? Must have been great times back then.

  2. I hope I’m not messing this up but I’m trying to remember the turntable. Off to the left in the photo is the current OSR line to Ingersoll.One of those tracks lead to where all switchers called home; I think there were at least 4 of them. Behind them, and a small enginehouse I think, was the turntable. It must have been on the west side of the Ingersoll line…off end of Buller St……Yes, it was great back then; I recall an RS-23 as well as the RS-3, but never caught it in action.

  3. The YDHR in Uxbridge On has 2 operating RS-3′s!
