Description:
This picture portrays a momentous event in the history of the Baltimore and Ohio.

This is the last of twelve historical scenes painted by Herbert D. Stitt for the Baltimore and Ohio in commemoration by Herbert D. Stitt for the Baltimore and Ohio in commemoration of its Centennial Year, 1927.

Metro North Train
Jumbo/Large Format
Description:
One of the evening commuter trains to Poughkeepsie, NY, train number 397, speeds through the tunnel at Breakneck Mountain along the Hudson River. A pair of Electro-Motive FL9s power the train as usual but today, August 19, 1986, one of the four units painted in the New Haven colors does the honors up front. The General Motor's Electro-Motive model FL9 was a unique locomotive. Designed to operate as a straight electric locomotive on New York Central's third rail to Grand Central Terminal, the locomotive has a diesel engine to power the traction motors through a generator for normal operation. The New Haven received two groups of thirty locomotives each. The first group delivered from October 1956 to November 1957 had 1750 hp and the second group, delivered June 1960 to November 1960, had 1800 hp. Although, the FL9s are presently numbered in the 2000 series, the numbers do not match the original 2000 series numbers for each locomotive as delivered to the New Haven.

Occasion for this crossing is the National Railway Historical Society's Convention Special on August 23, 1985. Both locomotives, Atlantic 7002 and American 1223, were built by the railroad's Juniata Shops. The former Pennsylvania Railroad steam locomotives are leased by the Strasburg Rail Road from the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania.

Chessie System
Jumbo/Large Format unused
Description:
At 8:30 in the morning, Saturday, September 13, 1980. Greenbrier 614 started a fall series of excursions over the Chessie System departing Baltimore, MD for a round trip to Harpers Ferry via the Ptapsco Valley. Twenty trips were made, the last a round trip from Cincinnati, Ohio. The big 4-8-4, and it was big too, 112 feet 3 inches coupler to coupler, was capable of handling the train as this scene near Brunswic, MD on September 19, 1980 illustrates. 614 was built by Lima and delivered to the Chesapeake & Ohio in the summer of 1948 as one of a group of five class J3-a locomotives numbered 610-614. Designed for passenger service, the Greenbrier also saw duty in freight service, especially after the arrival of the E8 diesel. After a relatively short active life of only eight years, the 614, now the 611, was withdrawn from service. Escaping the scrapper's torch, it was donated to hte Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Museum in 1977 where it rested until pulled out for restoration and excursion service by Ross Rowland's Steam Locomotive Corporation of America, in October of 1979. With the coming of CSX, the Chessie Family Lines merger, a series of winter excursions in Florida are planned for February and March 1981.

Pennsylvania 1361
Jumbo/Large Format
Description:
Pacific, class K4, No. 1361 waits at South Amboy, N3 for a train to the Jersey shore, August 4, 1954. Trains arrived from Penn Station, New York City with GGI electric locomotives to this point where the switch to steam was made. The switch is still made at this station, but now its from electric to diesel power. After being retired from service, 1361 was placed on display along the mainline at Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, Pa. in 1957. These pacific lomotives were the mainstay of fast passenger service for years before the last of the fleet spent their final years on the New York & Long Branch in commuter service. In September 1985, the Pacific was removed from the Curve and placed in the Railroaders Memorial Museum in Altoona before being taken to the Conrail Shops for overhaul. After thirty years, 1361 again turned a wheel under its own power on April 11, 1987 at 8:57 pm.
