- Part 3 of a great weekend, after the great day in Harpers Ferry West Virginia, we stayed to long to drive home that night, so back to the hotel we went, and upon studying the map for the trip home, I then realized that I was only an hour away from Baltimore MD, and what great thing is in Baltimore, but the B&O railroad museum, so I put my head to the pillow like a kid on Christmas night anticipateing what a waits the next morning. After a restless slumber, I a woke, threw the wife in the car, grabbed a coffee, filled the gas tank and away we went, and gleefully purchased our tickets and had a great time exploring the roundhouse, I too hope you enjoy this video, and if you've never been and are in the area someday you should stop in and see the stream lined beautiful Hudson. I hope you enjoyed my impromptu weekend getaway be sure to go back and see part 1 and 2. As always I thank you for watching and your support and kind words you leave in the comments..

Thank you Lee, glad you liked it.
I was a member of Chesapeake RRE back then!
Great tour of the museum. My favorite place when I'm in Maryland visiting my children. Always something to see in that area. Don't miss the trolley museum & Ellicott City.
Thanks for stopping by Tom, really means alot. thanks for the tips on new places, I really enjoyed the museum. Definitely would go back.
Number 51 did passenger service from Jersey City to Washington D.C. from 1937 til circa 1958 also stopping at Philadelphia. The Jersey City Terminal still exists in Jersey City in the state park at the waterfront facing Brooklyn but without railroad tracks. People took a bus that went to the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad ferry terminal to Battery Park in Manhattan and traveled by Broadway up to Columbus Circle on 59th Street on the west side of Central Park. In 1962 my late father and I went to my first New York Car Show and the bus terminal was still there 1 block from the New York Coliseum where the auto show was held and was used for other exhibitions. It and the bus terminal no longer exists as well as many other places in NYC my old hometown. Thankfully there are places that the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad served still exists.
Wow, that's awesome info.. thank you. Yes it's a shame that alot of great railroad history is long gone. Appreciate you watching thanks for this comment
Nice tour of the museum , hard to say what my favorite part was . I think they change the engines in the round house . I've seen photos of #51 in there. The layout is pretty awesome. Thanks for taking us along Papp.👍👍
Thanks Jerry, mine was the Hudson. You see it in the old ad verts, and post cards, so it was cool seeing it in the flesh. The layout was cool. Thanks for watching.
Thank Goodness someone in the Past thought about the Future of those Beautiful Engines and they never got scrapped. Looks like a great place to visit with everything they have going on. Very Happy you got to go. Matt and Jebb
Thanks Matt. Just seen this comment. Yes it was an amazing place. Thanks for watching
I wish I knew you were here. I'm only 10 miles north of the museum and would have met you there
Oh no, that would have been great to meet you, sorry Joe, I didn't know or I would have definitely let you know I was there. If I ever get that way again, I will definitely look you up.
For you information the GG1 at the B& O museum it th one that crashed thru at Union Station and ended up in the basement just before Eisenhower's inauguration the Chessapeake division RRE was able to get it and donate it to B&O museum in then1990's
Thank you Steve, that is awesome information. I definitely didn't know that.. thats a gem to have then.. I thought it was an old miss treated left over. That should be housed and on display with photos of the crash.. Really appreciate you leaving this comment. Thank you..
Amazing collection, especially in that roundhouse! Very nice Pappy, thanks!
Round house was cool, I really liked that tunnel size checking car and the camel backs, thanks for watching Roy.
I want to hang out with you! You go to all the coolest places!
🤣 thats what I say about you, I've seen some places you get to, would be cool to get up your way, thanks for watching
Fantastic museum tour, just got to love old iron, thank you for posting. Also nice layout as well.
Gary.
Thank you Creepy (Gary) lol, yes that place was rife with the old iron, wanted to read all the plaques and postings but I would have needed 2 days there lol, appreciate you watching and very glad you enjoyed it.
That was a great museum. The HO layout was awesome. That tunnel clearing car was the bomb. Thank you for the tour. You go to all the kool places!!!
Thanks Eric, I loved that tunnel car, I end up at the cool places, I don't set out to go there, I think thats why I love my drive, seek and finds the best, it takes me places I never think about. Or some says hey your close to this go see it, as always thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it.
the beast was awesome all of it look great looks like a lot of stuff to see there and a lot of walking lol 😀
Thanks Dwight, the beast was a beast, and believe it or not its all in a relatively small area, compared to other museums, glad you enjoyed it.
Along the ol B&O! Good Morning!!
Morning Anthony, thanks for watching.
Awesome as always 👍🏼
Thank you, so glad you enjoyed it, that was one of the better museums I've been to.. appreciate you watching
Hate you HATE you.. You didn't take me with you. You know that the pay back will be hard.. I'll be waiting at my port for that Hudson you smuggled out to arrive.
This is a place I must visit next year, on one of my trips over.
Seriously, thank you so much for sharing, I really do appreciate you showing the place, with us.
Lol Arty, the phone was busy when I called so I went with out ya, 😆, and sorry I couldn't find a box big enough to put the Hudson in, so don't wait to long at the port,. 🤔 when when come over, there's alot of cool places you need to go, start making that list. Glad you liked the vid mate.
@@TriGogglin Well mate you know I'm a very busy person at the moment, you didn't try hard enough.
Well it looks like I'm going to have to do it myself, I just can't depend on you to do the right thing., for you fellow Aussie 😅🤣.
I've made the list long time ago, but since I've made my channel, and got tied up with this gang I had to start a new book to add the places to the list, and that's just for the US.
I do want to do a documentary more than anything on one of the lines that was never finished, that started in SC.
@@Ausmerica thats gonna be one big book, and a documentary would be cool to do, I'd like to see that.
@@TriGogglin That book has 2 volumes, I need to send it over on the ship before I leave home.
Hey looking at how you like rail history, maybe one summer you can come along with me. The line goes a fair way.
@@Ausmerica that would be awesome Arty, for sure. Thanks
The B&O museum seems to be one of the to do railroad museums in the US, large collection of earlier engines there.
It clearly shows the development from the small locomotives of the first years up to the behemoths of steam and the diesel/electric era.
It is as you said, a great trip thru time.. most impressive collection of equipment. So glad you enjoyed it, I appreciate you watching
One of the holy trinity of RR museums, the others being St Louis and the Illinois Railway Museum. These all have large collections and more importantly RARE pieces that most smaller museums won’t have.
Thank you I do intend to make it to those other 2 always have been on the bucket list
A lot to see there. Thanks for sharing, David
For sure Dave, very nice place to visit, glad you enjoyed it
I admire their collection of Victorian steam locomotives, those are unique to see.
Hey there Matt, yes the display they had, I've only seen in books or in model form, so they were cool to see in person. Very glad you enjoyed it as well.
Local and larger context… Value… people and communities.
Appreciate you watching
I was there for my birthday
That would be a great birthday 🎂 happy birthday.. appreciate you watching
wow sweet video Pappy! that museum is cool as heck. GP30! and you're right, the Hudson is nice.
Thank you John, I had a great time, so glad you enjoyed it.
Awesome vid mate! Thanks for taking us along 😎👍
Very welcome, thank you glad you enjoyed the tour.
TOTALLY AWESOME video Pappy! Had to have been extremely hard to cut it down to
that amount of time, I could have watched four 15 minute videos of this place. You
did a superb job on this one my friend. B&O is my favorite, liked it better than Steamtown.
Hard to say which is my favorite there, but William Mason is just amazingly painted.
Thanks Dave, I have not been to steam town so the only thing I have to come close to is our visit to age of steam, and thats a hard pick both has there perks. And yes its very hard to keep videos in a watchable time. I wanted to do 360 walk arounds and read off some of the info, but most wouldn't want that lol and as far as paint, they were all sharp looking, still love that tunnel sizer car, and still drooling over the Hudson, thanks again my friend for watching and enjoying my videos and the great comments and support you give.
@@TriGogglin If I am not mistaken the Hudson was a rebuilt steam locomotive that was a conventional non streamlined steam locomotive. The last brand new steam locomotive was the Norfolk and Western J class 613 the last of 3 streamlined steam locomotive built by the same railroad in 1950.
One of the holy trinity of RR museums, the others being St Louis and the Illinois Railway Museum. These all have large collections and more importantly RARE pieces that most smaller museums won’t have.
I definitely have the other 2 on my list, hope to get to the St Louis one this year. appreciate you watching
Very impressive tour of the B&O rr museum, I live in the Baltimore area close by the museum about 30 minutes away. I am really interested in personally observing C&O locomotives "Hudson" no. 490, "Allegheny" type no. 1604 , and B&O "President Washington" no. 5300 the next time that I make a visit to the railroad museum.
The Hudson is amazing, you need to stop by and take a look... thanks for watching
would B&O 5300 be steamed sometime.
I have no idea on that, that would be cool to see.. appreciate you watching
12:02 thats the gg1 that crashed into union station
What!!! Are you serious, that's awesome. Thanks for this.. appreciate you watching
The 490 is a Pacific. Not a Hudson! The EA #51 is not the first streamline locomotive. The CB&Q had the Zephyr in 1934.
Thank you for your comment Mike, but I got the facts straight from the museum, the 490 is a L-1 class 4-6-4 "Hudson" type. It was originally built in 1926 as an F-19 class 4-6-2 "pacific" type, and rebuilt in 1947 as a "Hudson" and if you listen in the video I never said the "51" was the first streamline loco, I said it was the first streamlined Diesel - Electric locomotive.
Can you please visit EX Amtrak F40PHR unit 281 next???
Hello Anthony, do you know where that is located, it sounds interesting.
@@TriGogglin EX Amtrak F40PHR unit 281 is at the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento California.
@@graphtonix6607 whoa, thats pretty far, I'm all the way in Ohio, I was in California about 4 years ago. Sure wish I knew it was there, if I get back out there I will definitely look it up.
@@TriGogglin 281 has been there scene it retired from Amtrak in 2001.
Did a GG 1 run on Baltimore & Ohio railroad?
I'm not sure B&O ever owned a GG-1. I think The B&O was the first to electrify a section of track, but is was to expensive to convert too.. I was told the GG1 at the museum is a PRR and is the one that crashed thru the floor of union Station..
I wonder if warren buffett cares?
This museum failed for taking good care of its inventory. The chessie steam special is now ruined and they won’t restore her to operate status.. cosmetic restoration don’t cut it… fff you museum
Not sure of what and all goes on there. It was a great visit for me. And everything I seen there was beautiful. It does take a lot of money to restore an engine. So if they have poor attendance, or lack of donations. It might be hard to keep up on thise things.. but I don't know.. you may have a better insight . But I thought everything thing I seen was awesome. I do appreciate you watching and this comment. If you have more info. Please tell me more..
Awesome video!!
Thank you very much, so glad you enjoyed it.
