Scott Holcomb replied to Xata:

It is an enormous rotating turntable. Just out of the picture is an elevated track that can be positioned so that a locomotive can be shunted out of its berth and onto an outside track (or reverse).

I learned about this by watching Thomas the Tank Engine videos with my sons decades ago.
