The Oakland B&O Railroad Museum in Oakland, Maryland is located inside the 1884 train station, an exquisite Queen Anne style structure designed by E. Francis Baldwin. With its circular tower, a bell-shaped roof, half-timbered gables, and fish-scale shingles, the station is considered one of the most significant historic depots in the country. The building was completely renovated in the early 1990’s by a group of local citizens. The Museum contains a number of local artifacts from the Garret County’s rich rail history. The museum organizes frequent rotating exhibits with artifacts from the B&O Railroad Museum in Baltimore. The Station is also an educational center for the county, hosting guest speakers who detailed the rich history and importance of the railroad to Garrett County and the region in general.
