| Jamie Adams posted About four years away from the start of CSXT, Chessie System / C&O #7568 is outside the Western Maryland Railway's Hagerstown roundhouse in May 1982. - Kodachrome slide. No photographer listed on slide mount. Collection of J.L. Adams Jeff Hammaker: CSX start date November 1, 1980. Jamie Adams: Yes. CSX Corporation was formed on that date in 1980, but actual operations under the entire CSX 'corporate umbrella' didn't take place until July 1, 1986. Up until that time, all the roads that made up CSX were operated as if each were separate from one another. |

| John Miller posted B & O Train Stations in Maryland and nearby (post one) This is the Hagerstown, Maryland B&O train station located on the corner of Antietam Street and Summit Avenue. This is an artist's rendering of the station and the nearby fire company (far left) and the U.S. Post Office (next to the fire company) as well as the Dagmar Hotel. The Dagmar was a hotel that train patrons utilized when they had a layover. This is one of my favorite train station images. More train stations will be posted (possibly one each day). The post is being shared with the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad group. The rendering would have been from the late 1920s to the late 1940s. After the train station was relocated the property first became a parking lot with an Amoco Station. Later it became the "new" location for the Herald Mail Newspaper building. Today it is the site of Meritus Park. The home of the "Flying Boxcars" minor league baseball team. |

According to a comment, this is the Dagmar Hotel. And a Google Maps label agrees.

The above topo map indicates that the B&O used to have quite a few tracks in the downtown area. I got this aerial photo to check it out.
