Summary
Ash pit (locomotive is on top) Coal tipple (for loading coal) Storage/maybe offices building Power plant Water tower Locomotive watering towers.
Just beyond the storage building was the turntable and then roundhouse.
Interesting note, the power plant was constructed before most public electrical systems. Railroad officials were purchasing home electricity from the railroad and installing electric lighting years before the Harpers Ferry Power Company brought lines into town.
