Pete, I just now had a chance to look at your link. That's pretty interesting and it's something I did not know.

In the bird's eye view of the station, does that look like a turntable at the end of horsecar tracks just to the right of the smoke plume?

Andy.. I never noticed that before.. Probably is a little TT to turn the car. There is no way you could back a mule very far is there? Good Find!
