Here is one for switcher Saturday.

Sorry for the quality of the picture.  It is a picture of a 29 year old 3X5.

Back in the early 90's, The Saturday gang at the B&O museum want out and cleared piles of debris and replaced a piece of rail to reconnect a piece of street trackage on S Catherine St. downtown.

After a few gauge rods were added on the sharp curve entering the street, We took the 633 ( SW900, 1955) up to EOT at Wilkens Ave.  Probably the first time in 20 years.

The 633 had just recently been backdated and repainted.

I always loved the mood of this photo.

Harold - thanks so much for posting the wonderful photo of B&O 633 running on the street in Baltimore City!  I love that you have a first hand story to go with the photo too!  Do you know where/what street  your photo was taken?  

Here is 633  today as it stands in the front yard tracks of the B&O Museum.  IMG_0640IMG_0639-4
