A big thank you goes out to Ian Deck, a regular reader and commenter on this site, for passing along these photos and allowing me to post them.
He took these photos the evening of June 15, 2010, as demolition started on the remains of Crawford Yard roundhouse.
Sad to see more of Windsor’s rail history disappear….

Above is a picture of the Crawford Roundhouse, date unknown.
Here’s the location of the roundhouse. It’s kind of tucked out of the way, off Crawford.

you got it! i really think it's a table. it looks just like the ones on the river, MC on howard, but not so much like the CP table. then. later on in 61, the bridge of the table is gone and the hole filled in, but the circle is still obvious.
hmmm....according to michiganrailroads.net, it doesn't say where...but there was one in Walkerville somewhere. Out of commision as of '49 and used by the PM.
