(erielack) I-80 over RR Yard Near Hubbard



Lee,

This is the old NYC yard known as Coalburg. I think it was built during WW 1. 
There also used to be a shop, turntable, roundhouse, coaling tower, and water 
tank there. This was on the south side of I-80. What you saw was on the north 
side. From what I am told the NYC used to station an H-10 class Mikado at 
Coalburg to push trains north out of Youngstown. I believe the roundhouse was 
torn down in the 30's?
