Description

B&O Railroad No. 147 "Thatcher Perkins" is one of the oldest surviving 4-6-0 locomotives in the world. It was built by the railroad's own workshops in 1863, and was used for military trains during the Civil War. With a weight of 45 tons, Thatcher Perkins was very big and heavy for its day. After being heavily damaged by a collapsing roof at the B&O Railroad Museum, it has been completely restored, and is back on display.
