In this video, we see the R&GVRRM's newly acquired GE 110-tonner #8 being used to move Baltimore & Ohio Railroad baggage car #633 from track #1 in the museum's Industry yard to its new siding west of the Livonia, Avon & Lakeville Railroad, who's personnel directly supervised the car's move on this day. This was the first time the car had moved in 27 years having sat on a disconnected track in the museum's yard for most of those 27 years. The museum's volunteers reconnected the track to allow this move to take place which will result in track #1 being removed to allow for some new exhibits. Baltimore & Ohio baggage car #633 was built in 1927 and is equipped with six-wheel roller bearing trucks. The car can carry twenty-five tons of baggage and express cargo. The car is 70 feet long inside and 74 feet long outside from coupler to coupler. The car saw more than forty years of service before being sold to an individual in the Rochester area in the late 1960s. It was subsequently moved to a private siding in Churchville, New York for use as a residence. The car was loaned to the R&GVRRM in 1977 and donated in 1978. It was temporarily stored at a number of locations before being moved to the museum in 1981. The car was repainted into its original colors in 1982, and the museum has plans to repaint it again in the not so distant future. The car has been and will continue to be used as a support car for other projects.
