In 1987, CSX removed the B&O Eastbound yard from Brunswick. The yard was about 2 1/2 to 3 miles long, was about 26 tracks wide, and included the B&O's eastern caryard used until (I think) the cumberland yards were built (Put into use before 1910, main operations left westward in 1927). <br />Now that the Estbound Yard, B&O YMCA, Roundhouse, and the B&O railroad itself are gone, and the westbound yard & its structures are mostly gone, there is very little left from the B&O on Railroad Property. <br />Now as the local Museum would love to actually have rolling stock other than that in 1:87, but can't because of a lack of property, CSX has seemed to have agreed to allow 84 Lumber to construct a Contractor Only warehouse, wich would give a need for flat-bed trucks to go through the over 500 space MARC parking lot, and most likely dig up the remains of the yard & shop buildings. <br /> <br />What are your feelings. I am of course biased because I am a Museum Staff Member, so I would rather see the property go to the Museum. That of course is a major dream when you consider its....well.....CSX.
