Until
1967, mail was hauled exclusively by railroads. Train #11, The
Metropolitan Special became one of B&O’s most profitable
daylight
trains by providing a combination of mail, express freight,
and passenger services. This limited edition train print showcases The
B&O Metropolitan Special, with an E7A & B unit, and four
head-end mail & express
cars,
leading a compliment of passenger equipment down Cranberry Grade. The
Metropolitan Special outlived
it's more famous west-end counterparts to ultimately become the last
surviving
B&O through train on the Baltimore -Cincinnati- St.
Louis run.
This nostalgic painting of The B&O Metropolitan
Special is now available
as
a
limited edition Giclee print with special pricing and
free shipping. Each limited edition Giclee print
ships with a Certificate
of Authenticity. The limited edition size for reproductions
of the original painting is 200 large
prints and 500 small prints. Your satisfaction is backed by
