ITEM DESCRIPTION:  Vintage Photo Post Card (PC) brand new and unused.  The photos shown are of the actual postcard listed.  Please note that the photo image you are viewing may be cropped (cut) on the sides just a fuzz so it would display better without showing the blue cloth background it was set on for scanning.

Postcards and Photos are a great collectible and source for future reference for model building, model railroading, scratchbuilding, prototype modeling etc. Postcard and photos are invaluable when you need to know certain details, architectural details, paint colors & schemes, lettering placement etc. for locomotives, freight cars, cabooses, trackage, buildings etc.  Postcards and photos also make great small framed pictures for use in bathrooms, train rooms, halls and other rooms in your house where a small colorful print is needed without overpowering the area.

POST CARD CAPTION:  BALTIMORE STREETCAR MUSEUM Baltimore, Maryland.  AMERICA'S ONLY DOWNTOWN STREETCAR MUSEUM.  The Baltimore Streetcar Museum is truly a train watcher's paradise!  Penn Central commuter and freight trains, as well as Amtrak Metroliners and long distance passenger trains, are just 500 feet away, and the B&O's Balgimore Belt Line crosses directly overhead.  On Memorial Day, 1972, "The Royal Blue," an excursiton train from Washington to Jersey City, thunders over BSM's streetcar line complete with Reading steam engine No 2102.  An endless parade of freights, pulled by diesels of four railroads, is standard practice on the Belt Line.

NOTE:  This postcard is new and postally unused. This post card was probably produced in the 1970's or 1980's but I don't know for sure.  Please look at photos carefully.
