## Description

The National Museum of Railroad History & Innovation in Baltimore, Maryland, preserves and shares the people, machines, and experiences that shaped American railroading. Formerly known as the B&O Railroad Museum, it honors the site’s roots as the birthplace of American railroading while looking ahead to a new chapter, including Innovation Hall, scheduled to open in January 2027. Visitors can explore exhibitions and one of the world’s oldest and most comprehensive American railroad collections, featuring locomotives, rolling stock, artifacts, archives, and a restoration shop. The museum offers train rides, guided tours, and behind-the-scenes experiences, alongside events and activities for children and families. Its educational programs include field trips, virtual field trips, teacher resources, homeschool resources, and interactive learning about the Underground Railroad. Visitors can also plan group visits, browse the museum shop, or host an event in its historic setting. Membership, volunteering, donations, and corporate partnerships support the museum’s preservation, education, and community initiatives.
