The Society is dedicated to the preservation

Society has members all over the world across a variety of
railroad interests from modeling to research to

The Society maintains a large archive of
documentation from the Office of the Vice President of
Operations and Engineering from the B&O Railroad.
We are also the custodians of numerous photographs and
other items of research. We are constantly publishing
our findings through our Company Store. Our
Archives area is open one weekend a month to facilitate
members who which to pursue their B&O research
