Here are a small sampling of the tools, specialized for use on the steam engines. This roundhouse is a working one. They repair and service all their locomotives and have a full shop, circa late 1800's, to do any and all work necessary to keep these babies running and healthy. The shop is a belt driven one. All machinery driven by one 25 horsepower motor, with an overhead shaft and belts down to each of the presses, lathes and other specialized machines for the upkeep and repair of these puppies.

You gotta figure such a massive piece of machinery like a steam locomotive is going to require a massive number of various tools to keep it running. Now multiply that number according to how many locos a road rosters, that makes makes for a crap-load amount of tools!
