The folks at the old B&O Depot at Oakland Md, now a restored and very nice little museum have a new display out at the depot. They have wanted to add to their boxcar and caboose for a few years and hoped that a steam locomotive or even a diesel could be added.
Recently their wishes were fulfilled with the addition of THIS LOCOMOTIVE
Wife and I like to visit Oakland once in a while, and while in the depot a few months ago, found that they had been given some funds and had an engine ready to come to the museum.
Here are a few photos, made soon after the engine was delivered, and a few visits while she was put together as sort of a Baltimore and Ohio steamer. The image numbers are the dates the photos were made.
A few days later....
Time passes before the next visit..
Yet another visit to Oakland (and the now 476!)
And the last photo taken last week. The cab still has to be done, windows etc. and interior. But she looks good here in the sunshine!
