  • It's an engineering-themed #NCLearnAtHome video, We're taking a look at the inner workings of the Bob Julian Roundhouse turntable, used in the heyday of steam locomotive travel to spin locomotives and place them in the roundhouse for regular maintenance and repairs.

    This video answers so many questions I've had in my head about the table at NCTM.

    This turntable with sheds really reminds me of Thomas and friends.

    That’s really cool. I assume the control room must get pretty toasty with that resistor bank in there, spinning loads all day. Or does it have a cooling fan that exhausts the heat out?
