On Tuesday we headed sown to VA to visit with Tamsen and her family. On our way we stopped at my Uncle Bill's and had breakfast with him. Then we headed into Baltimore and went to the B&O Train museum, a place my dad has tried to visit in the past but never made it. It was a beautiful day and we had a great time wandering around looking at all the exhibits. The Round House was a beautiful building just on its own.
One of the trains on display was this Gratitude train from France used during WWII. My dad shared that this was the kind of train he traveled through France when he was overseas during the war. They called it 40+8 car meaning that it would hold 40 men or 8 horses. When I looked at the train closer there was a plaque stating just that, just in French. It was so cool.
Just one of the engines in the round house
We ended our visit to the museum with a train ride on the B&O. I am so glad we got to share this with Dad.
