Summary
[edit].jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | The water tower in the Toronto Railway Museum, relocated here from it's earlier location next to the roundhouse further at the other end of this yard. Steam locomotives serviced in the St. John's workshops and roundhouse required plenty of water to run. Water from Lake Ontario was pumped in 60,000 ltrs. water towers like this. The height of the tower ensured enough gravity for the water to flow through underground pipes into stand piles and vertical columns used by the locomotive crew to fill the water tank in their engine's tender.
