Yes they have a turntable but it is a "kit".  Plans and fundraising are underway to install it.

ORHF acquired the turntable from the Brooklyn roudhouse which is currently stored on flatcars awaiting fund raising to install it.

I think the turntable was salvaged from the demolition of the SP's Brooklyn roundhouse.

DAMN, Dick beat me to it by seconds!
