This is a wonderfully preserved roundtable building which was at the heart of one of America's oldest (and most profitable) RR's. There was a special exhibit on trains in the civil war which is not to be missed: engines and cars from the Smithsonian as well as the permanent collection. We've been to a number of train museums and this one is a highlight.

From it's earliest days to more modern locomotives you see the development of rail travel in this hands on museum.

The museum incorporates the 19th-Century roundhouse, and they have a very comprehensive collection of trains. Lots of activities for kids, too, including a carousel for the little ones.

We spent several hours here - probably a bit more than most - but there were so many things to see relating to trains. I've been fascinated with trains since I was a little boy, and the B&O Museum didn't disappoint. Too many exhibits to talk about them all, but if you like trains at all, you have to go there if you're in Baltimore.

It was freezing outside and we needed to get out of the hotel. My boyfriend loved it. I'm not very interested but he thought it was cool so win for me

I enjoyed this place 100% they give kids a card that encourages them to go to each station and get a stamp. They even let adults do the card. If the weather is not the best this is a good place to go. It has plenty to look st inside. It was very cold and we still had fun.

If you like trains, the history and variety of this old train depot is spectacular. The train cars are beautiful and the round about is a fine example of how the train system functioned within the city. Very colorful, very impressive, and photo ops abound.

This was a great museum for train lovers. There are many vintage trains spanning US history. This is a comprehensive collection of everyday objects, Civil War memorabilia and actual trains since the beginning of the railroad. They offer activities for the whole family. There are films of the trains and their involvement of the Cuvil War. There are newer collections as well. This was a well spent couple of hours.

Yes, plenty of locomotives and train cars and great description of this rail road company. What I was hoping for though were more of the large steam engines and Stream Liners. This museum displays more of early models from later 1800s to early 1900s.

Wow! Even if you are not a railroad buff ( like me) it is worth your time to stop in and visit this unique and historic museum. You will be amazed at the size and complexity of the steam engine locomotives. Plenty to see for adults and kids alike.Staff very educated and friendly. :)

I'm not necessarily a train buff, and the Mrs. even less so. Still, we managed to have a nice time touring the museum. The roundhouse is very cool, and some of the old locomotives and cars they have restored are really neat. They still had some Christmas train displays set up, and that added some value. Kind of a one and done attraction unless you're really into trains, and a bit pricey. We found a 2 for 1 coupon in the Baltimore Sun that took some of the pain away, and I'm glad we went.

This place isn't cheap - two adults and one senior admission came to $52. So keep an eye on the clock. The museum closes at 4, and its outside yard and work barn close at 3:30; so it's all too easy to lose out on seeing some of the most important engines, and the works in progress, if you arrive too late or become engrossed in the Roundhouse exhibits. Inside the Roundhouse you'll find a feast for train enthusiasts and novices alike. Engines, carriages, baggage cars, mail and post office cars, passenger cars. Videos. Amazing scale models of trains and landscapes. A lively kids' corner, with books, Legos, projects, even a little carousel (not sure what that has to do with trains, and it costs extra to ride, but it's cute). On our visit, a fascinating exhibit on how railroads influenced the outcome of the Civil War. Out in the yard, for another $3 per person, you can take a 20-minute train ride up and down a short stretch of track. There's ample parking in the museum's lot, and you'll park among engines and rail cars of all sorts. Just be sure to give yourself enough time to enjoy your visit and keep an eye on the clock so you don't get closed out of the outside yard.

Born and raised in Baltimore, I never got to go here. My grandmother worked here. I finally got to take my children and they LOVED it, didn't want to go. So it seems this is part of my itinerary every time i go to Baltimore. lol 1 Adult 2 Kids 7 and 9 costed me 42 bucks. Their experience made it worth every penny.

After a roof collapse from heavy snow, the old round house has been wonderfully restored. Old engines and cars inside as well as some around the parking lot. Kids can control a model train outside and there is a short train ride available

This museum is a must-do for train lovers! Others can enjoy and learn as well. We visited on New Year's Eve with our 5 and 8 year old granddaughters. Besides all the trains there were many train related activities available for them to do. They loved the carousel and rode it numerous times- glad we bought the all-day passes for $5 instead of $2 per ride. The train gardens were fantastic. My husband loves trains so he was interested in them specifically. I found the history of the people, the train travel, and how trains were used during the Civil War very interesting. The architecture of the building itself is worth a visit!
