Railroad enthusiasts work inside the Altoona Roundhouse,
with historic Soo Line Locomotive No. 2719 in the background.

An old sign admonishes the "grease boys"
to keep their work areas clean.

Looking from the roundhouse window, the turntable is visible.

This is how Altoona Railway Center backers
envision their completed restoration project.
