  It doesn't say outright, but I was under the impresssion that it was the 
town's only water tower.  You gotta remember that this is no longer the 
old/weird west and so trains don't need water towers anymore (like the one 
those chicks bathed in on Pettycoat Junction).  It also states in the book 
that the watertower is 40 feet in the air.  Being from an old rail-town 
myself (Conyers, GA) I can tell you the buildings don't get more than 3 
stories high (in the rail district) and there is only one water tower.  And 
yes, this is a fairly populated town (30K+), so I figure Rock Springs 
wouldn't be too different.

    Believe me, I don't plan as using it as a handout.  I just stated it 
wasn't on the map.  However, as the posse explores, I will have to redraw 
certain things on the map for the posse (that's just how I operate), and I 
can see the posse asking "Okay, and where's the water tower at?"  and me 
going "Ummm... it's north... er, sou... er  ummm.... uhhh..."   But I'll put 
it somewhere.  It's not like it's the first time I've had to improvise 
before.  :)
