Round House

The Round House, located on the Carlton Trail Railway Yard, is one of only two historic roundhouse locomotive repair facilities still in operation in Canada. The semi-circular building is oriented around a large hydraulic turntable which rotates the enormous diesel locomotives into position before they are piloted into the building for maintenance. Although the site is not a recognized tourist facility, arrangements can be made for class and public viewing by calling Carlton Trail Railway at (306) 763-9470 or visiting their website at http://www.omnitrax.com/ctr.shtml
