From the steaming area we headed over to Terrytown Station and Gray Yard. The station includes a full-size dispatcher tower which directs operations on the railroad.

That's an operating water tower.

The yard is where trains are assembled and from there passengers climb on board:

There are storage tracks near the yard throat. Here is a very nice Galloping Goose:
