Celebrate those who work hard all year long with the B&O! 

B&O workers laid the very rails which sparked the spread of industry across the United States and changed the nation forever. To honor these railroaders and the many working-class heroes that we all depend on today, we’re hosting special programming including Mile One Express Train Rides along the nation’s first mile of commercial railroad, and our Working on the Railroad Tour—a guided tour about those who labored on the railroad, supporting the expansion, upkeep, and innovation of riding on the rails.

Plus, on Monday, September 2nd, spend your day off at the B&O with only $5 admission!

This was such an awesome experience! The trains inside were phenomenal and all very well kept. But we went ahead and did the train ride also and that was just icing on the cake! This is a great experience for kids, teens, and adults like myself.
