I'm going up to see the B&O and Strasburg PA train museums in a couple of weeks. Any suggestion, comments?

Thanks!

Take your camera!!!!! If it's a film type....take plenty of film. If digital....make sure you have plenty of storage media and if video take at least several tapes.

Don't miss The Choo-Choo Barn layout, about 1/4 mile from the Strasburg RR Museum.

If you go make sure you spend a day they have a ton of stuff. Also while your there look up the BSM (Baltimore streetcar Museum) There on Falls road down by the river.They have operations and static equipment. Enjoy your trip. Rob

Check out the site http://www.borail.org/ that will give you a great starting point!

I've never had the opportunity, but one day ........

Bring lots of film or an extra battery and memory chip for the digital!

Have a great time![tup]
Happy Railroading! Siberianmo
