I expect that is RD tower built in 1953/1954 at the east end.

All,

The following photo on Ebay

is shown to be made in Bluefield.  I don't recall the seeing another picture  of Bluefield showing the structure in the background.  Based on the funky looking trackwork, I am guessing this might be a weighing station of some kind.  Can anyone shed some more light on the images location?  Was it Bluefield and if so where exactly in the yard, what was the function and how was it used?

Thanks,

Jim Cochran
