Hello all... another one for the ATSF experts out there... I'm seeking dimensions for the ATSF water tower(s)...of the type that used to stand out at Dalies, NM...where the Glorieta sub connected with the Belen cutoff... It's a very simple design, and I know I've seen others similar to it, so it must have been a 'stock' ATSF design...(I seem to remember one out at Negra, on the Clovis sub) Would be very grateful if anyone has any info or can steer me to a site...( I've tried on-line at ATSF Historical, and Q-station... Thanks in advance, Bruce a pic of mine circa 1995....
Vol 3 of Santa Fe System Standards shows plans for 16' dia. water treating tank (p322). a plan for 24' dia treatment tank that is for the 30', 45' and 60' heights is on (page334) plans for standard 24' diameter water tanks for 30', 45' or 60' heights on (page326). Currently working on a SF water treament facility for the steam era, which requires the building used to store the chemicals. Here are some pre-paint pics: Here is the chemical storage building:
RWCJr, thanks for the info...based on the info...seems as if the dimensions I need are 24' diameter and 60' height... Thanks for the citing of that reference...seems as if those volumes would be handy to have! Thanks again, bruce
