Remarks & Notes

A Conductors work is never done!! But luckily he takes a minuet to pose with the caboose lamps before he goes to work. Here number 82 and B&O 6641 pose in front of the Western Maryland station which was built in 1908. This is an original Western Maryland locomotive built in 1948. with the exception of the ditch lights and the reflective dashes on the frame this loco is as it was when it saw service on the Western Maryland. It has only seen two paint schemes the Western Maryland "Fireball" scheme and the scheme you see here. It's sister locomotive number 81 resides in the B&O Museum in Baltimore. Special thanks to Chase Gunnoe and his staff for putting off another great photo charter on the Durbin and Greenbrier RR.
