If you look closely at the ICC Map 1918 you will see that the stone Roundhouse section does not line up with where it is now, was it moved?

The odd thing about the location is that when extended they had to have dumped a significant quantity of fill material as otherwise it would have been hanging over the side of Park Gulch.

Where did this material come from? When was it done? The Railroad owned the town, why did they not locate the Roundhouse somewhere where a future extension would not need all this fill?

The wooden extension blocked the wind blown snow, why not build the stone section facing south originally, better light, warmth and would have blocked the snow.?
