B&O museum steam days

[mrWM734]

I just went to the B&O railroad museum's steam days, and they fired up the William Mason. It's the world's oldest original locomotive that is still operable. Here are some pictures of it.

Cool!

One of my most favorite B&O engines! I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't publicly viewable when I was there after the 2004 reopening, but I was glad it eluded the roundhouse roof collapse. I just wish they'd put the front number plate back on!

The concrete structure is the remains of the tender repair facility. The roundhouse was what collapsed but has been wounderfully restored. See "mysteries" section of the link below.
