That steamlocomotives.com site is a very good initial reference. Let's see if I can make the link operational:
http://www.steamlocomotive.com/lists/
That site shows 17 B&0 locomotives extant, and 23 C&O survivors.

If you go to the site steamlocomotive.com/lists you can search by state, builder, etc for surviving locomotives. They have a comprehensive list.
If memory serves, at the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad museum in Baltimore, Md., there are several big steamers on display, although not active. For the C&O, there's a streamlined Hudson and a 2-6-6-6 Allegheny, for the B&O there's a 4-6-2 President class Pacific, I believe it's the "President Washington", also some 2-8-0's and 2-8-2's. There may be others but it's been a few years since I've been there. C&O 4-8-4 614 is currently on display at the Virginia Museum of Transportation in Roanoke, VA. There's a 2-8-4 Kanawha on display behind the Science Museum of Virginia in Richmond. There may be others around that other posters may know of. I checked the website of the B&O Museum to see if they had an inventory of the steam locomotives on hand but couldn't find one. Maybe it is on the site but I just couldn't figure it out!
What big B&O and C&O big steamers are still around? 2-8-0s, 2-6-2s, 2-8-4s?
