Midland Terminal Railroad Roundhouse (Van Briggle Art Pottery)
El Paso County
The Colorado Midland Railroad constructed the stone fourteen-stall roundhouse in 1889 for the maintenance of its steam locomotives.
The facility served the railroad until the abandonment of the successor Midland Terminal line in 1949. Once common along railroad rights-of-way, surviving roundhouses are extremely rare in Colorado. Listed under Railroads in Colorado, 1858-1948 Multiple Property Submission.
