Both of the turn tables you guys show, don't appear to be operable.
I'll agree that it does not look to be operational, but it is used occasionally as part of a tourist trip.

Yep. I was correct in my recollection...

Rail - Vancouver - Rail Yard Bypass - Complete March 216 | WSDOT

So it wasn't exactly a new one as it was a relocation.

Old turntable in Vancouver WA, looking south. The new one is about bottom center of the photo.
