The Cathedral of Steam - a photo on Flickriver

            Sometimes referred to as the Cathedral of Steam, the B&O Railroad Museum is a great place to visit if you're a history buff or a railfan.  Located on the grounds of the former Mt. Claire shops of the B&O Railroad in Baltimore, MD, the museum houses an incredible collection of locomotives and rolling stock dating to the earliest days of American railroading.  

Interestingly enough, the roundhouse you can visit today was never used as a locomotive servicing facility.  Instead, it was part of the Car Shop facilities on site.  The original Roundhouse was demolished long before the site became a museum.
