The B&O No. 545 “A.J. Cromwell” was one of nine locomotives heavily damaged by the Roundhouse roof collapse on Feb. 17, 2003.

The “A.J. Cromwell” was fully restored and returned to the Roundhouse in 2012.

The roundhouse was my favorite part, because it gives a true feel for what goes on in a roundhouse—the cars are stationary, but seeing the actual tracks is eye-opening.
