Brian,
 
30 minutes up 95 from DC in Baltimore this weekend is Steam Days.  the Wm Mason will be run by MLS's own Chris France.  Also in steam is the St. Elizabeth Hospital Switcher (an 0-4-0T).  So, there is a lot of railroad history to see in and around the Baltimore / DC area!
 
(PS, I had to post the above because I posted the info about Union Station on Chris France's thread about Steam Days!  Too bad the B&O museum and the Union Station people coordinate their efforts a little better.  Would have been neat to see some of the BORM stuff at that event as well.  Chris was telling me that the Wm Mason was originally assigned to Washington DC!)
