While it's clearly in Chicago, I would be inclined to agree with Leo that it may be the Roosevelt Road turntable. I've seen one other photo taken there — it's in a file folder in my material now in storage in Naperville — and this looks like the same location.

Subject: Re: [CBQ] Image Location?
Louis may be correct but pure speculation on my part would be to search for photos of the roundhouse at Roosevelt road that handled passenger equipment. It was east of Roosevelt where we all remember the REA building being located.
I seem to remember reading somewhere it was removed as a part of all the various relocations invoked with building CUS and the new freight houses.

Is the locomotive an early “Atlantic type”. Also does the tender have only three axles.

Hi Folks,
Does anyone here have an idea of where this image may have been taken? Taken after 1899 and 1913. The water tank, the tall buildings to the right and the bridge to the left of the locomotive
are clues/
