A circular building for housing and repairing locomotives. 4, record 4, English, - roundhouse
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 CONT
... Today we don not often call the locomotive an "iron horse," nor do we call the engine-house or roundhouse in which locomotives are kept a stable, but the places in the roundhouse where the locomotives are kept are still called "stalls," and the roundhouse men who look after the locomotives and take tem in and out of their "stall" are still called "hostlers." When a locomotive finishes its run, it is usually taken to an engine terminal. At the terminal is the roundhouse, where engines are cleaned and given light or "running" repairs, and made ready for their next runs. The engine terminal also includes a coaling station, a water tank, a sand house, an oil house and an ash pit ... The roundhouse is a sort of locomotive garage. its name is derived from its shape. Many roundhouses are semi-circular in shape, many other form a complete circle except for one or two openings for entrance and exit tracks ... Long pits between the tracks in the stalls permit inspection and repair of locomotives from underneath ... 2, record 4, English, - roundhouse
