Baltimore and Ohio to Begin Washington Terminal Works
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad announces immediate start on the Washington Union Terminal project. McMullen McDermott Hoffman of Philadelphia won a bid just over $2,000,000 to build the eastern approach, viaduct, freight terminal, and roundhouses for the Washington terminal. The project includes a 4,000 foot Capitol Hill tunnel and a marble station costing over $4,000,000, under architect W D Durham. Total cost near $14,000,000 with DC bearing $3,000,000 and the rest split between B&O and Pennsylvania. Washington Terminal Company controls the works with stock held by multiple railroads. Maryland owns about one third of Washington branch stock and will contribute about $4,000,000. The new facility will be among the nation’s largest, serving lines including Baltimore and Ohio, Pennsylvania, Atlantic Coast Line, Louisville and Nashville, Chesapeake and Ohio, Southern, Seaboard Airline, and Norfolk and Western.
