Eastern Railroad Discussion > Turntable at Age of Steam Museum in Sugarcreek Ohio

I am looking for additional information about the turntable at the Age of Steam Roundhouse and Museum in Sugarcreek Ohio. (I visited on Sept. 30th, see enclosed photo) I believe it is 115 feet long. Was this turntable newly built for the museum or acquired and moved from another location? Who built the turntable?

Thanks for posting the photo. I haven't been in the area since the Ohio Central was still running the steam train between Sugarcreek and Baltic. In answer to our question, the roundhouse was built new. I am not sure what company (or various contractors) constructed it. Good information can be found on the website ageofsteamroundhouse.org. A railfan friend of mine visited the round house earlier this year (his wife is from Baltic) and he highly recommends a tour but do book in advance.

The turntable at the Roundhouse in Sugar Creek was originally installed at the Western Maryland Roundhouse, in Hagerstown Maryland.  It was the second turntable at that location and was installed  when the railroad purchased their M-2 Challlengers, in 1942?
