The station is now the Oakland B&O Museum and is run by the Garrett County Historical Society.The Museum features the Baltimore & Ohio 476, a 2-8-0 Consolidation-type steam locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in December, 1920. The engine started life with the Jonesboro, Lake City and Eastern Railroad as #40, and became #76 when that railroad was acquired by the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway (Frisco). After performing freight service for years, the engine was sold in 1947 to the Mississippian Railway where it retained the Frisco number. Following several further changes in ownership, the engine was acquired by the Oakland B&O Museum in 2018 where it was renumbered and relettered as the Baltimore & Ohio 476 as representative of a typical B&O locomotive. The B&O did run 2-8-0 steam engines as its Class E locomotives. The tender mated with the locomotive was previously in operational service with the Arcade & Attica Railroad's Engine #18, and was acquired by the museum in 2018 in a swap.
