B & O Train Sunk in the Caribean

There are also several Liberation-class 2-8-2's and some RSD1's at the bottom of the Atlantic, although they wound up there after their ships met up with a U-boat.

A few episodes back-"Deep Sea Detectives" (on TLC or Discovery) while looking for a shipwreck stumbled across a couple of locos lost some where in the Atlantic- and I think they commented that it happened fairly often ( or at least it wasn't rare- a lot of weight usually on the upper deck (because they could not stow them down low) and a modest storm would cause the ship to capsize or the loco would break loose and go overboard.

It plays on the History channel.

I learned of a civil war era locomotive sunk near Harbor Island in the Bahamas while on vacation there a few years back. Could this be the one you are looking for?

Years ago, a B & O train was sold, packed on a ship and then the ship sunk in the Caribean during a storm. I have also seen an old liquor? ad that highlights this. Can anyone give me more information where I can find out more details?
