These guys look pretty proud of that train of theirs, but with no notes written on this one, I have no clue who they are, and I don't know enough about locomotive history to even try to date this one. Maybe one of those railroad experts will happen by here and help me out. I'm sure there are people out there who could take one look at that picture and say, "Good old unit 498! It was built at [city] in [year] and was in service for [number] years …."
All I know about the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad is that it passed through Gary on the way to Chicago. The caboose appears to be marked Baltimore and Ohio Chicago Terminal Co.
