Description
Inside the B&O museum, Baltimore. This roundhouse contains a number of coaches, wagons, and engines from the collection, and it is easily the most recognizable of the buildings in the complex. Dates from the 1880s. The roof collapsed under snow in 2003 or so. It was a disaster and an opportunity.
Some cars were damaged beyond repair, most have been restored and some are awaiting restoration. Turns out, the restoration facility is also a big draw for the crowds. It was closed when we visited, but I think I figured out where some of those beat-up engines, etc. I've been posting are headed for!
Part of the visit includes, season permitting, a short train trip past the restoration facility, etc. Old 1940-vintage cars donated by MARC are used for the trip. Lots of old metal to look at and some old varnish as well.
Getcher tickets and we'll do a tour.
'Board!
Enjoy; thanks for viewing.
Mind your head there!

yes I can see some of things on bottom but you was shooting the roof here which is very good subject to shot for it interesting to see. Hope this roof hold up
Very nice photo!!! Fantastic... Good day ;)
All aboard for Baltimore! I never knew this was even there. I'll stop by for sure on my next visit! I've been inside a roundhouse, but it had been converted to a restaurant. Nice to see the real thing!
a bit of a glare but cool roof!
