CSX/B&O Stone Arch Overpass over Western Maryland Scenic Railroad in Cumberland, MD


I don't normally document overpasses, but they are not normally made of stone either. This view caught a CSX train. The overpass is part of a bridge over the heavily channelized Wills Creek.

This past Saturday, 3/22/25, my son and I rode the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad. On the way back down, we were lucky enough to ride in the cab. Before approaching the station, there was a freight on the B&O Viaduct heading towards Grafton. From what I understand, this was an extremely rare event. I was lucky enough to grab a picture from the cab of WMSR 558.
