Incorporated in 1827; the Baltimore Ohio Railroad (BO) was one of Americas first railroads; and Maryland was its heart and soul. The BOs creation was a tangible symbol of the Industrial Revolution; representing commerce and progress to towns along its route. Its headquarters and operations; centered in Baltimore; provided years of economic growth for the port city. This book contains images of well-known stations in Maryland; including Ellicott City Station; Gaithersburg Station; Camden Station; and the Mount Clare Shops--a self-contained industrial city; now home to the BO Railroad Museum. Some stations still exist and are home to small museums or restaurants; others no longer stand; but images of them will remind even the casual historian of a time when railroads were a part of everyday life in America. Take a step back in time and revisit the sites; stations; and trains of the BO that were once part of everyday life in Maryland and remember the glory of a bygone era.

No download and no print for coloring. The samples we see may not even be in this particular coloring book as theyre used as samples for other coloring books. What good are they to Kindle owners...None.Wonder if this author understands the the samples will make or break a sale?? The sample designs are like many of their other samples...basic shapes that are for children; not many adults.When we buy coloring books in stores we can look inside to see if we like the designs and check for designs we already have.

Expectations are sometimes deceiving.By Sharon S.Somehow I expected more.I suppose the mandala models were good for a base to get started with. I will probably come back for a second look after Ive had more than two hours sleep.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Wonderfully freeBy HopeGreat free coloring book. I ran across this when looking for adult coloring books. With it being a kindle book it has a download link in it so I can print out the hard copies to color. I love all of the details to color. It will keep me busy for hours on end.
