this is a old localmotive round house ,, some of it is still in use today,, The Esquimalt & Nanaimo Railroad, began life in 1883, when Sir Robert Dunsmuir built the line from Esquimalt (just north of Victoria, BC) to Nanaimo, 72 miles to the north. In 1905, Dunsmuir sold the E&N to Canadian Pacific Railroad. The third, and only surviving round house that was built for the E&N, the all brick Russell Round house was completed in 1912. Much of the locomotives serving for the E&N were stored and serviced at the Russell Roundhouse in the early years. In 1949, the E&N retired most of its steam locomotives and purchased 13 Baldwin DRS diesels. These engines were also stored and serviced at the Russell Roundhouse. ,,,,,contuation follow the link,,
