Turntable for the Engine Facility

Over the years I have built a few turntables both from scratch and from kits.  I actually preferred to scratch build as the kits always seemed to require a lot of "adjustments" to get them to work.  I am going to work from information in the C&NW Facilities book.  There are drawings for 50 foot and larger turntables.  I am going to build a 56 foot version as it can accommodate the larger Bachmann Americans.  You will be able to follow along with the build on it's own build page.
