Discover the historic B & O Railroad Museum in Baltimore, featuring 19th-century locomotives and unique train rides.

The B & O Railroad Museum is located on West Pratt Street.

The centerpiece of the massive roundhouse is the turntable. It's fully functional and sometimes rotates for demonstration purposes.
