I was tack following the old NKP and followed it to Bellevue. In the Bing map shots it shows the Bellevue Roundhouse and turntable still standing with what appeared to be some MoW equipment in various tracks. I wasn't sure how new the photos were and was wondering if they still used that facility? Or the turntable to turn locomotives as it looks like a small 115' table.

Turntable is and round house is property of the MR&NKP group. NS as far as I know dont use it, as they use the wye under the hump to turn locos.

I flew over that yard a few years ago and I have a photo of the roundhouse/turntable somwhere.

They still use the turntable from time to time. I was not aware that the museum had any kind of ownership of the roundhouse though.

I thought I should chime in on this since I was a volunteer at the Museum from 2002 to 2005. I don't recall the museum ever being in kahoots with the roundhouse or turntable and have no idea if the turntable is still in operation. NW did put diesel locos in the roundhouse for storage and the turntable was used often when a steam excursion would come to town from 1979 to 1994 when the program ended.

I've only seen MoW using both

I thought at one time it was donated to them, but I guess not. Can not rember for the life of me where I seen it.
