The B&O Railroad Museum is recognized universally as the birthplace of American railroading. It was here within the Museum's 40-acre campus that Baltimore surveyors and engineers set about building the B&O Railroad in 1829, laying the first commercial long-distance track, building the first passenger station, and inventing America's unique railroad. Nearly 200 pieces of locomotives and rolling stock provide illustrate railroading from 1830 through the present day. The museum also displays tools, time-pieces, fine art, RR china and silver, uniforms, furniture, and personal memorabilia as well as a collection of scale models and toy trains illustrate.
