3¢ B&O Railroad stamp

Baltimore, MD postmark

U.S. #1006 commemorates the 125th anniversary of granting of the charter to the B&O Railroad, which was the first common carrier railroad in America. The stamp features the 1827 Charter in the background with three stages of rail development in the center. These picture the “Pioneer Car,” the first method of passenger travel; the “Tom Thumb,” the first steam locomotive put in service by the railroad; and a streamlined diesel train.

No major damage.
