The "President Polk" was one of 20 class P-7 Pacific-type locomotives built for the B&O by Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1927 and first unveiled at the B&O's centennial celebration, also known as the Fair of the Iron Horse. These locomotives were named after the first 21 U.S. Presidents with only one President Adams to represent both John and John Quincy Adams. These locomotives were designed for the B&O's premier Royal Blue Line passenger route between New York and Washington and considered one of the most handsome of the 4-6-2 type locomotive designs.
