Note: - The late Peter Miller, who provided the majority of the photos we use, insisted this was the Olive Street B&M RR Roundhouse. Because of space constraints, I have thought this is more likely the roundhouse at Coombs Avenue. The 593 was a Schenectady ten wheeler built on July 1st, 1904. Built on the same date, were sister locomotives 913 and 934, so this may be either of those. The turntable was powered by compressed air from the locomotives. The man second from the left on the ground has his hand on the locking mechanism that secured the movable rails to the ground rails. Regardless of the location, this is a fine study of hardworking men. The tall man fifth from the right was a Mr. Newman, who may have provided the photograph.
