I enjoy visiting the historic route of the Baltimore and Ohio. Many of the cities and towns along the right of way are rich with scenery and history.
Many times, I find myself pausing in Cumberland. I enjoy watching the freight trains of today's CSX and Amtrak's Capitol Limited as they pass through town.
Cumberland is known as the Queen City. Cumberland developed as a key junction of the Baltimore and Ohio, where traffic headed for Pittsburgh and Chicago diverged from the line to Cincinnati and St. Louis.
