[4K] Unveiling of Beautifully Restored EMC EA Locomotive #51! (B&O Railroad Museum)

For everyone asking, the restoration is cosmetic. The EA can’t run and I stated that in the description, but I guess no one reads those.

That is a beautiful locomotive. I love how the nose is so much more raked than later E/F units.

This is Beautiful. Wish my Dad was alive to see this. He would have been standing there with tears in his eyes. He had a photo album with pics of all the stream liners he use to ride while in the service traveling across the country to different training areas to teach. Trains were his love and he had had a train layout that covered a 400 square foot basement at his home with nothing but Stream Liner trains and towns from the 30's and 40's.

I had the privilege of seeing this magnificent engine 2 years ago! It needs to be seen in person to appreciate it. A pilgrimage to Baltimore is a must-do for all rain fans!!

Thanks for capturing this moment and making it viewable. Gorgeous looking restoration; good video. Thumbs up!

That may be the most beautiful locomotive I've ever seen.

Saw this on trains magazine. She sure is a beauty!

EMC E7 No. 51 after restoration and views moving her into the B & O roundhouse during 2021 was simply spectacular! Thank you for sharing, Steve B.

Wow, what a beautiful locomotive! They have an awesome assortment of locomotives. I can't wait to visit there

Really needs to be mechanically restored. Beautiful piece of work none the less.

Ok, I am now in love with this locomotive. This is a thing of beauty. Wish it could run, but I’m more that happy with the results of this phenomenal restoration.

This unit looks fantastic, excellent job on the cosmetic restoration, hats off! One rarely gets to see these streamliners in their glory. When I saw this come down the tracks in the video I started to truly appreciate how special these designs are especially at the time in history they were presented to the public. A fantastic unity of styling, speed, and color all in a size that was all around you when up close. WOW!

This is absolutely the most stunning work of art I have ever seen! It's a crying shame that her beauty will be static instead of moving about for all to see like Big Boy 4014.

That's so cool Chessie Cat Pulling a modern day CSX Locomotive.

Magnificent Shovelnose! An Art Deco Masterpiece! Glad that it has been preserved.

51 should be in an art museum. It looks fast just sitting still. Truely a work of art and beautiful restoration.

I love the design of this locomotive. Looks like it’s racing down the track even when it’s standing still. Breathtakingly beautiful. Thank you!

Hi from Green Bay. WOW!!!!! The RR museum here sure could learn a lesson from you! They used to have the Milwaukee Road #38A E9Am that was donated in July 1987 as a rust bucket. We in the model railroad club wanted to rebuild it for excursions, replace all the rusted body panels, and repaint it with orange and maroon for the Hiawatha. But then, our director was fired in Sept. 1989 with No Explanation, and the new manager was Very Stern, and completely refused to help us. And he called off work on other pieces like the narrow guage Shay #5 that has been sitting in pieces for the past 30 YEARS!!!!! What a waste of time! But he was also fired after 6 years. Our museum went through a slew of managers who did Not have any railroad experience whatsoever. And the one who came in 2007 decided to sell the M.R. 38a, and it disappeared. Along with 7 other diesels like the Two(2) BL-2's, and the 3 F7 A-B-A set from WICT RR. Then other cars were scrapped. The 38A was sold online by a broker, but was it bought and destroyed by a scrapyard. We have no answer. Then the museum has gone through 2 other managers who have no idea at all about the scrapped pieces. The Green Bay Museum should potentially have 95 pieces, with a goal of 100 which is a noble cause. But due to the scrapping and selling, they are down and have shrunken to only 58 pieces. The storage tracks used to overflowing, and more track was needed to be built. But now in 2021 there are many empty spaces. Even our model railroad club and the H.O. layout was forcibly evicted, even after 19&1/2 years of being loyal volunteers. The local chapter of the N.R.H.S. was also disbanded. The local live steamers club tried to rebuild the miniature railroad, but they were also loudly rebuked. Thank you God that there are still some very nice museums like in Baltimore, plus many others, that do such a wonderful job with their volunteers plus professional donors. GOD Bless US All. Amen!!!!!

That 3802. Just beautiful.

This is an American work of art, from the gracefully slanting nose to the blue and gray livery.
