I grew up next the B&O Philly Subdivison in Delaware County, PA and I can remember Western Maryland units coming through on trains in the early Chessie days. The one and only F unit I saw on a regularly scheduled freight was a Western Maryland in the circus scheme.

Cool shots. I'm headed to the Cumberland area for a week at the end of the month and I'm hoping to have some time to get out on the trail on the old WM right of way there.
