The symbol "Roundhouse and Turntable" is associated with which feature?

• A. Railroad Under Construction
• B. Roundhouse And Turntable
• C. Perennial River
• D. Intermittent River

Answer: (B)

Understanding map symbols helps you read what’s on the landscape. The symbol that shows a roundhouse and a turntable is used to mark a railroad facility where locomotives are housed and serviced, with a turntable used to rotate engines to face different tracks. This makes it a rail-related feature, not a river or a construction site. So the best match is a rail yard/locomotive maintenance site. Circles or lines representing rivers would indicate perennial or intermittent watercourses, which are unrelated to this symbol.
