Train Related New Alert - April 28 & 29 - Steam Days at the B&O Museum
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, April 16, 2007 6:31 AM

!!! NEW ALERT !!!

If you are into live steam, and you have the time, the weekend of April 28 and 29, 2007 is Steam Days at the B&O Museum in Baltimore, MD.  The B&O Museum has a train ride that rides the first 1.5 miles of railroad ever laid in the United States.  During Steam Days, the deisel switcher that is typically used on the straightline trip is replaced with a Steam Locomotive!

Bring your friends and family for a great time!
