点评:My son mentioned to me when he was about ten years old his desire to visit the B & O Train Museum. It took a few years however, I never forgot his request and so he had an opportunity to celebrate his 15th birthday visiting the place he had always spoken about. We were first amazed by the round room train display however, we stumbled upon a very nice surprise while visiting one of the smaller display rooms where we encountered Mr. Steve Shulder a museum volunteer. We visited on May 28, 2026 which was a relatively quiet day but due to the quiet my son had an opportunity to learn so much regarding the history of the museum because of his knowledge, expertise, and love for the B&O train museum. He took not only my son but myself on a journey that was magical and so enjoyable and what made it extra special was it was my son’s birthday. We had no idea about all of the history regarding the B&O Museum. Trains cannot talk but Mr. Steve Shulder became their voice on this day and he did a superior job of sharing the amazing story of the history of the railway which was long ago. Train history is fascinating history and we enjoyed our journey with him.
We learned about the Founders of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, Pullman Porters contributions to the railroad, and we discovered the amazing through the Underground Railroad display.
When you have an opportunity to visit don't forget to take the short train ride which is an additional $5.00 for adults and children $4.00, for museum members the ride is free. Admission to the museum is $20.00 for adults and museum hours are daily from 10:00am-4:00pm.
Mr. Steve Shulder you are a gem and we are forever grateful that we encountered you on our journey at the B&O Railroad Museum. You enhanced our knowledge and made my son’s birthday one that will be remembered and forever dear to our hearts. It is truly one thing to visit a museum but it is quite another to have a guide who is caring and has the desire to spread the history of the American railroad accurately and with passion. Our day was simply AMAZING because of you and the knowledge that you bestowed on us. Thank you Mr. Steve Shulder! You are a really wonderful guy!

我们了解了巴尔的摩与俄亥俄铁路的创始人,也知晓了普尔曼列车员们对铁路事业所做出的贡献;此外,通过“地下铁路”主题展览,我们还见识到了许多令人惊叹的历史细节。有机会造访时,别忘了乘坐那段短途火车之旅——成人需额外支付5美元,儿童则需4美元;博物馆会员可免费乘坐。博物馆的门票价格为成人20美元,开放时间为每天上午10点至下午4点。
史蒂夫·舒尔德先生,您真是个难得的好人!我们在参观B&O铁路博物馆的旅途中能遇见您,我们永远心存感激。您丰富了我们的知识,更让我儿子的生日成为了一个令人难忘、永驻心间的特别日子。参观博物馆固然不错,但能有一位体贴入微、满怀热情且致力于准确传播美国铁路历史的导游,则是另一番体验了。正因为有您以及您传授给我们的知识,我们这一天才变得无比精彩。感谢您,史蒂夫·舒尔德先生!您真是一位极其出色的人!
