What about the terminal? 

Last post I wrote about the sandhouse and how sand was handled. This got me thinking, “What about the terminal?” I wasn't thinking about the passenger depot or the freight house. I was thinking about the railway shops. Many posts ago I wrote about Murphysboro being the headquarters for the Mobile and Ohio Railroad. As stated the main shops were located here. The facility had a roundhouse, car shops as well as the coaling tower and sand and water and other buildings as well. Seems like I need to think about filling out my little railroad. Hopefully the future schedule will allow me to get busy with all these things. Thinking out loud, omscaler
