Meet Gingy! | B&O Railroad Museum

A very special guest stops by the B&O!

Meet Gingy from the Christmas Village in Baltimore

Just when you thought the holidays couldn’t get any sweeter! Our good friend Gingy is stopping by the B&O on December 5 to say hello! He will be wandering around the museum from 10:30 am-12 pm, so be sure to meet him while you can. We will also be making Gingerbread Man ornaments at Santa’s Winter Village in our Roundhouse. Don’t forget to hop aboard our Gingy-themed Reindeer Railways train ride and enjoy some delicious gingerbread cookies!

The Underground Railroad exhibit particularly made an impression. You can learn about the enslaved people who passed through Mount Clare Station as their last stop before reaching the northern states. Sobering and inspiring stories.
