Description

Opened in Baltimore on 2 July 1953, the B&O Railroad Museum is located at the historic site of the B&O Railroad's Mt. Clare Shops. Mount Clare is considered to be the birthplace of American railroading. The museum houses collections of 19th- and 20th-century artifacts related to America's railroads. The collection includes 250 pieces of railroad rolling stock, 15,000 artifacts, 5000 cubic feet (140 m³) of archival material, four significant nineteenth-century buildings, including the historic roundhouse, and a mile of track, considered the most historic mile of railroad track in the United States. Train rides are offered on the mile of track on Tuesday through Sunday from April through December at no additional cost. [1]
