Viewing Album:  Western Maryland
 
By:John Hepp
Dates:9/1/1975 - 10/1/1982
Album Info:The Western Maryland was another of those odd little railroads that survived until the 1970s that I liked. It competed with the B&O on the Baltimore to Cumberland and (via connections) to Pittsburgh route. Ironically, it was owned by the B&O.
