There is a fourth museum at the Museum Center at Union Terminal. It’s called the Tower A. This is the former railroad switching tower that directed passenger train movements in and out of Union Terminal. Its accessible by elevator from the main floor of the Terminal. Today the facility is restored and is operated by the Cincinnati Railroad Club. The original electric track diagram display board is on view as is some of the equipment used to move track switches and signals. Plus visitors can look out the windows and get an overall view of CSX Transportation’s Queensgate Classification Yard. I am sure that some of the lumber that you use at the PW shop may have passed through Queensgate on its way to delivery at your local lumberyards.

Hope all goes well with you all at the PW shop. I am busy here in my new shop setting up the tablesaw outfeed table, clamp rack, and rolling platform for my planer. Then it’s off to the Woodwright’s School for class in mid May. That’s Woodcraft Week with Roy Underhill.

Kind Regards,
