Jack Davies beside one of the locomotives at the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Museum at Mount Clare, Baltimore, during his 1977 tour of the United States.
In his account A Limey Visits Ohio U.S.A., Jack wrote of the visit:
“The exhibits at the museum are too numerous to mention but I do consider that alone is worth a trip to the States.”
He went on to describe spending considerable time examining the museum’s full-size wooden model of the 1844 Ross Winans “Mud Digger”, making notes “for future use.”
