This photo was posted on ebay a few years ago, but without a date. This one says 1960: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/35mm-Dupe-Slide- ... 58c502b8d4
The roundhouse is gone and MOW or portable station has replaced it. What I gleaned from this photo is that the roundhouse was quickly phased out with the introduction of full dieselization in 1959. It would be interesting to know how many jobs were lost in Yarmouth at this time.
Here are the additional photos of the Yarmouth roundhouse: http://www.dardpi.ca/wiki/index.php?tit ... nginehouse
