HistoryThe roundhouse was built by Jerry Joe Jacobson, former CEO of the Ohio Central Railroad System (OCRS). In October 2008, Jacobson sold his interest in OCRS to Genesee & Wyoming, Inc., including the track, modern equipment, and most of the shops and depots. Jacobson kept a collection of vintage steam and diesel locomotives, other old equipment, and a depot at Sugarcreek, Ohio.[1] He bought 34 acres in Sugarcreek and began constructing a roundhouse to house his collection. The roundhouse building was completed in 2011 and all of the steam locomotives, along with a few other select pieces of rolling stock in Jacobson's collection, were moved inside the roundhouse that same year.[2] The Age of Steam Roundhouse website says it was the "first full-sized, working roundhouse built in the U.S. since 1951".[3] It outlines its goals as:
The project was paid for by Jacobson and his wife, Laura. They set up an endowment to maintain the site. They do not intend to run passenger trains, although others can rent trains. The owners plan to run steam locomotives on neighboring railroads.[4] Architect F. A. Goodman says the building is 48,000 square feet and of "solid masonry walls" and "heavy timber framing". It has 18 stalls, each of which is large enough for a locomotive and its tender.[5] The Goodman company says the roundhouse is one of the largest heavy timber structures in America.[5] Initially, there were no plans to open the roundhouse for tours of any kind, but in the winter of 2015, it was announced that the roundhouse will offer private guided tours on Saturdays during the summer and fall.[6] Steam locomotives
