Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Museum

Today we went with the kids and Jen's parents to the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Museum in (can you guess?) Baltimore. The B&O Railroad was America's first train system, running between Baltimore and the Ohio River Valley. The museum is s a gem of a place with full-size trains that kids can go in, historical exhibits, model trains, and more. Here are a couple of pics:

Above is a picture of Jen's parents and the kids talking to one of the museum volunteers.


And in the second picture the kids are in the back of a tiny horse-drawn wagon.....the kind that trains quickly replaced in the middle of the 1800!
