    Probably the last place anyone would expect a B&O unit to make an appearance. Glad you were there to capture this!

    The B&O 4648 is former Bessemer & Lake Erie 708A acquired by B&O in 1962. Two ways to distinguish from B&O ‘s own units – no MU on the nose end; and a tiny speck of orange paint in the extreme lower right corner, next to the air vent.
