B&O EM-1

Baltimore & Ohio EM-1 Introduction

 

I collect models of articulated steam locomotives. In November 2015 I bought a model of the Baltimore & Ohio EM-1. A huge and impressive engine and in a sense the epitome of steam locomotive development if not for the US as a whole then at least for B&O.

I knew in advance that there would a little bit of work on the loco: it was unlettered and unnumbered. So I would have to source and apply the decals myself.
