B&O Flashback!

2 ex-Baltimore & Ohio RR GP30’s on the same track at a former B&O Roundhouse!

Besides some cosmetic differences, this is a scene that could have happened many of times back when these locomotives were in regular service.

The 6923 and 6955 have both been preserved by Cincinnati Scenic Railway and are in various stages of restoration back to operation.

Is it 1970 or 2026?

🚨Our NKP Express Car has arrived!🚨

From Kansas to Ohio, this was an epic journey to preserve a special piece of Nickel Plate Road History.

Built in 1947, this car regularly traveled on the premier Nickel Plate Road passenger trains between Buffalo and Chicago.

As funds permit, we will restore it back to its original appearance and utilize it as a power car.

Special Thanks to all our donors who helped make this possible.

Also, Thanks to our friends at the Abilene & Smokey Valley Railroad and Case Towing in Lebanon for their assistance.
