The B&O Railroad Museum

This video is made from photos and clips taken at the B&O Railroad Museum in Baltimore in 2024. I also included a handful of pictures from earlier trips there.
I've added a voice over that provides a small bit of information about the artifacts which I gleaned from the museum website and Wikipedia.

8:11 and actually 490 was originally a 4-6-2 pacific that was converted into a 4-6-4 hudson when it got the streamlining.

[@jayeibner974]

That I didn’t know. Locomotive 2102 in my Reading, Blue Mountain, and Northern video was also built as a Pacific in the 1920s and converted to a Northern in the 1940s. Was that a common thing?

[@yeoldeseawitch]

@@jayeibner974 ok first of all, the T-1s like 2102 were 2-8-0 consolidations that were converted into 4-8-4 northerns. Second, yeah it was common to rebuild locomotives, but there was a scale as to how "rebuilt" you wanted them. The T-1s are pretty much brand new locomotives with next to nothing left from their original 2-8-0 forms

[@yeoldeseawitch]

4-4-0's are "american" types, not atlantics. atlantics are 4-4-2's

[@jayeibner974]

Oops. Thanks for catching that.
