Baltimore County Schools are off on Friday, Sept. 24 — Join us at the B&O for our kid-friendly Fueling America’s Railroads Junior Tour! In this tour, visitors will explore how the evolution of engine design has been influenced by the effect of types of fuel on the environment. Learn how the environment influenced railroads to switch from steam to diesel-electric engines and when the B&O Railroad started using electric power.

Tour is included with regular Museum Admission.

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.
