This amazing 1898 William B. Shannahan Collection photo is featured on page 130 of Norman Harrington’s book “ Easton Album” 1986. Mr. Harrington captioned this picture as the “ BC&A train after breaking through the snow drifts just east of Easton during the blizzard of 1898”! William B. Shannahan was 20 years old at the time he took this picture ! For someone so young he did a great job of recording Talbot County’s Railroad era of the past! A special thanks again to Bob Shannahan for sharing his grandfather’s negatives with the Talbot Historical Society!
