 Early in the morning on Monday February 17, 2003, the Iron Structure of the 1884 Baldwin Roundhouse at the B&O Railroad Museum collapsed under the weight of the snow from a major snow storm. Thankfully, no one was in the museum at the time.
The museum team was overwhelmed by the concerned response from our City and State leaders, Museum members, longtime friends and visitors from all over the world, as well as our valued volunteers, and members of the media. The offers of financial and manpower assistance, as well as the regard for the welfare of the collection reaffirms our teams mission to provide all who visit the museum with an appreciation of the Birthplace of American Railroading.
We chronicled one and a half years of our rebuilding process which led up to our reopening in November 2004. Feel free to read any or all of the entries made by selecting a date below.
