Here's a great aerial photograph of the shops area at New York Central's Mt. Carmel, Illinois shops in 1951. Lots of good stuff to see including 7 steam engines (4 in the roundhouse), a water tank, the new turntable, a freight house, car shop, roundhouse, etc. I don't know where I got this photo from, but it looks like something from Rex Settlemoir's collection, who's family came from a long line of NYC employees. At this point, steam, the Egyptian and most of the double-track on this line were coming to an end unfortunately.

Schiller Park's firefighters are working to save the the car shop side of the SOO's roundhouse and they were successful. This shot is not mine as I was helping fight the fire.Taken in 6-66.
When I first visited the B&O Museum in Baltimore in 1993, some of their most famous exhibits were still outside- not good for long-term preservation, but certainly good for photos. The restoration of the carshop building adjacent to the iconic roundhouse, together with a program to slim down the size of the collection, allowed pieces like these to move to indoor display locations.
This shot at sunset highlights the stainless steel fluting on C&O 490. Description of the 490 from the museum's website:
The No. 490 was constructed by the American Locomotive Company (ALCO) for the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway (C&O) in 1926. As one of the five F-19 4-6-2 "Pacific" locomotives built for the C&O, the No. 490 was used on passenger trains on the mainline east of Charlottesville and west of Clifton Forge. In 1930, the No. 490 was assigned to the "Sportsman," the premier C&O passenger train at the time. Later, the No. 490 was transferred to the "George Washington." The No. 490 and other 4-6-2s operated between the Cincinnati and Washington route until 1942 when the C&O replaced the "Pacifics" with new heavy Baldwin 4-8-4. The No. 490 and other 4-6-2s continued to run as secondary passenger trains during World War II.
Shortly after the end of the war, the C&O decided to upgrade their passenger service. The C&O was primarily a coal-hauler and therefore wanted to improve steam locomotive technology. They developed a new luxury liner between Washington and Cincinnati named the "Chessie." The new liner was to be powered by experimental steam-turbine-electric locomotives. In addition, the C&O's Huntington shops rebuilt the No. 490 and the other 4-6-2s into 4-6-4 "Hudsons." The new locomotives had roller bearings, front-end throttle, high-speed booster, cross counterbalance, and the Franklin system of steam distribution.
Due to the increased automobile production and the airline expansion that occurred after the war, the luxury Chessie passenger trains never ran. The rebuilt "Hudsons" instead hauled regular passenger trains until 1953. The No. 490 was stored in the Huntington Roundhouse until 1968 when it was moved to the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Museum.
From what I know, the building pictured here was used for building and maintaining the railroad's freight and passenger cars. It's known as the Car Shop and they built and maintained many a passenger and freight car within it's walls. The car shop currently stores the railroad's passenger and freight cars, which will undoubtedly see much action in the coming years, since it was just announced in February 2020 that they are working to re-open the tourist railroad here.
CSX GE CW44AC locomotive # 30, along with # 484, leads its manifest freight train into the yard's west side by-pass track, at Erwin, Tennessee, 4-15-2008. The train is passing through the grade crossing at 2nd Street as it makes its way into the yard area. The tracks situated in front of the locomotive lead into the car repair shop. This yard that is situated in the downtown area was a former Clinchfield Railroad property that is now out of service, due to the cut back in unit coal train service.
CSX EMD GP38-2 diesel electric locomotive # 2545 with its MOW train is spotted near the car shop in the yard on an overcast day at Erwin, Tennessee, 11-11-2006. This locomotive was former SCL # 2545, and the last photo I've seen of it in service was taken on 7-17-2016 at Mobile, Alabama. Don't know if the locomotive still remains active on the roster? It appears that CSX is using these GP38-2 locomotives for an extended lifetime period.
"We found wonderland. You and I got lost in it. We pretended it could last forever."
This was a sad day. The shop I go to in Seattle, CRZ Motorsports (Carrozzeria), is closing down because of the owner's personal matter. I went down to install my Status seats while the shop was already empty. However, the base mounts for my car needed some custom work, we didn't end up putting them on. The last car that ever been to CRZ failed to get the work done...
We sat in my Status seats for the whole day waiting for nothing. It was hard to describe my feeling. I felt like I lost a big part of my life. CRZ was the place I go when I was in Seattle, leaded me to lots of amazing friends, made me feel like home in the Pacific North West. Never thought this would come so fast...

The Easley-Pickens line was chartered on December 24, 1890, by the South Carolina General Assembly after two failed attempts to build a railroad through Pickens from Easley. The line connected with the Atlanta and Charlotte Air Line Railroad (later the Southern Railway) and was completed in 1898.
On the railroad's first revenue run, the Pickens Railroad suffered a serious derailment that was caused by a local group of boys that had placed spikes on the rails, in their words, "to see what would happen." No one was seriously injured, but caused the fledgling company a serious financial setback, which operated in the red until 1905.
In its early years, it was nicknamed the "Pickens Doodle" because the train would run backwards to Easley and forward to Pickens, which "looked like a doodlebug," according to area residents. The Pickens Railroad, at the time did not have turning facilities until the line built two wye sections of track at each end of the line years later.
The Southern Railway briefly acquired control of the Pickens around 1910, however, it was reverted to local interests several years later.
In the 1920s, Singer Manufacturing located a sewing machine cabinet plant on the Pickens Railroad. The plant eventually became the railroad's biggest customer and the line was purchased outright in 1939 by Singer. In 1927, the Appalachian Lumber Company built a network of logging lines in the upper portion of Pickens County. By 1939, it too was also acquired by Singer and organized under the Poinsett Lumber and Manufacturing Company. Passenger service was discontinued in 1928 as better roads were built in the region.
In 1959, The Singer Company consolidated its sawmill and cabinet operations with the woodworking operations from Arkansas and the Craftsman power tools from New Jersey to the Pickens location. Several years later (in 1963), Poinsett Lumber and Manufacturing Company had announced that the Pickens Railroad was for sale. James F. Jones of North Carolina purchased the line for approximately $50,000. Jones built a new enginehouse and established a carshop for rebuilding and renovating railroad cars. Jones sold the Pickens in 1973 to Philadelphia-based National Railway Utilization Company (NRUC), which expanded the carshop to build new freight cars.
In the early 1990s NRUC became Emergent Group and sold the railroad to CLC-Chattahoochee Locomotive Corp., which renamed the railroad Pickens Railway Company, according to the Federal Register, 1 May 1996.
In 1991, Norfolk Southern Railway leased the Belton-Honea Path line to the Pickens under the "Thoroughbred Shortline Program." This line was built in the 1840s by the Greenville & Columbia, eventually becoming part of the Southern.
in 1994, the Pickens expanded further by leasing the Belton-Anderson line from Norfolk Southern. This line was built in the 1840s as part of the Blue Ridge Railway. Included was former Anderson trackage that had belonged to CSX previously owned by the Piedmont & Northern and Charleston & Western Carolina.
