Kentville Water Tower

A standard enclosed wooden water tower, it was at first located by the turntable and had two discharge pies, one by the roundhouse lead and the other on the Kingsport branch line. The tower was shifted closer to the river about 1943 and replaced at the turntable lead by a water stand pipe.
