What's the proper term for the Valley Heights loco facility. Does
roundhoues describe loco stalls arranged in a circle fashion around a
turntable or does it in fact mean a "round" house i.e. right round the
turntable. If that is so, what is the proper description for Valley
Heights.

AIU Seymour and Junee were/are proper round houses. Now I'm not sure
what to call Bendigo where the turntable is inside the rectangular shed.
