Dates:10/13/2012 - 10/13/2012
Album Info:On the ride to the Civil War encampment and the run-bys of William Mason #25, our steam ride behind St. Elizabeth #4 took us past some of the storage tracks and repair shops. Notable was a long string of "display wanna-be's" - stored cars in need of restoration. It is quite a mix, some easy to recognize and others that I need help identifying. PLEASE leave a comment if you know anything about these pieces.

B&O Tender Kitchen Ruins
Title:  B&O Tender Kitchen Ruins
Description:  From what I could gather from the B&O Museum pages, this used to be a repair facility built in 1919. Although it was nicknamed tender kitchen because it was occasionally used for repairing locomotive tenders, it was primarily used for repairing freight cars and was first introduced as the B&O's new "Car Repair Shed." Interesting reading on their site.
