Relay, Maryland, Historic railroad district in Maryland, United States
Railroad tracks and granite buildings line the streets of Relay, marking the intersection of historic transportation routes in Baltimore County.
The district originated in 1830 as a designated point where horses were exchanged on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad's first 13-mile commercial track.
The Thomas Viaduct Hotel, constructed in 1872, represented Victorian architecture and served as a central gathering place for railroad travelers until 1938.
The former fire station at 1710 Arlington Avenue functions as a community center, available for local gatherings and private events.
Three artillery batteries and 2,000 Union soldiers protected the Thomas Viaduct in Relay during the Civil War to prevent Confederate sabotage.
