Join us for the annual B&O Unlocked series at the B&O Railroad Museum, featuring a special tribute to the 250th anniversary of America. Each month, explore a different piece of rail history that contributed to nation-building.

This March, delve into one of our most iconic steam engines: the B&O No. 600 “John C. Davis.” Built in 1875, this revolutionary locomotive was the largest in the world at that time, marking the dawn of the 2-6-0 “Mogul” type for passenger services. By the 20th century, over 10,000 Davis Moguls were operational throughout the American rail network.
The No. 600 has graced numerous exhibitions, earning accolades for its stunning design at the 1876 Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia and showcasing its elegance at events like the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago and the 1927 Fair of the Iron Horse in Halethorpe, MD.
