Dear Friends of the B&O Railroad Museum:

As the Museum team continues to meet with construction and engineering professionals to "shore up" the structure, we are encouraged by the initial inspection of damages and wish to share them with you.

At present, contractors are working to brace the remaining portion of the roof to prevent further damage to the collection. The engineers have advised us that the walls of the Roundhouse are strong but the remaining structure is under a great deal of stress. Therefore, the weather continues to be of concern with regard to the stability of the Roundhouse. We are covering individual pieces of the collection as they can not be moved at this time because of the rubble. It is not possible at this time to cover the Roundhouse.

Please continue to visit our web site for the most up-to-date information.

Thank you for your continued support as The B&O Railroad Museum remains closed until further notice.
