Yes, I used the Oddballs set and I might have purchased a set for the
ACF's but I'm not certain. I have been to Huron, South Dakota twice,
once not long after the Alco's left just before the book was published
and the last time when DM&E was using the roundhouse to rebuild their
purchases of several old Milw SD-40's. I was a rainy summer day but the
roof showed it's neglect with puddles of water here and there. If it's
still there, it must be one of the largest still-in-use roundhouses around.
