Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railway Roundhouse, McFarland, Kansas

The roundhouse gang poses in front of the McFarland, Kansas roundhouse in this Gus Meier photo from about 1910. With the discontinued use of steam locomotives, the roundhouse was demolished in 1953 and a diesel maintenance building constructed on the site. The new building was moved to Belleville, Kansas in 1955.
