Cool!

Thanks for the report Jamie! Right, "She'll be done when she's done." As the R&N's a working railroad I'd have to assume the 425's being rehabbed on a "time available" basis. She'll run again, she's too good to be left in a shed as a monument, her fans just have to be patient. You know, some might want 425 redone in a black paint job but personally I like the Blue Comet inspired paint scheme!

Looking forward to riding

Congratulations on your job well done and all of RBMN people was on PTJT train car KING COAL.

Yep! Saw her that day in Jim Thorpe! You Guys Really Know How To Bring The Full Experience of Steam!

Jamie, I've noticed that the consist has dropped from 19 cars to 15 (including the HEP car). Is there a reason for that? I remember when Andy easily sold out the 18 cars. Thanks, Bill Stephens

John(RBMN 425):I Wish that I Could Be Done With This Inspection Test So I Can Run Again

the reading and northern 2102 looks good still on the route with nice sky without clouds, same with 425 and other trains

will the switches on either end be signalled eventually?

Very cool. Question, do your social media pages block people?

Hey RBMN! Great Update On The New Station! And You Guys Are Re-writing your old theme song from Charles Adams?! Cool! Love that song from when you guys were the Blue Mountain Reading Line!

Awesome progress ❤

Are you ever going to upload the intro song in full?

I didn't know Jamie worked for the railroad

Tłumaczenie tekstu za pomocą aparatu I have a question, how are you working on 425 because it's a bit boring on CZcams without this steam locomotive and I'm sad that I've never seen it live and I feel such nostalgia that the first 425 films are from 2008 and I was born in 2008 and so I'm a little sad that my, so to speak, Beloved reading & northern 425, a little bit, when I found out that it's going to be released in 2022, that's how I'll put it, modernization, when I saw the movie, when you took it apart, I admit, I cried because it's my favorite, I hope that You are working hard on it and I hope that one day I will be able to see your work, i.e. 425 live :D

I’m super excited for the ramble to Tunkhannock! Already got my calendar marked for that day so I could see 2102 in person for the first time. I’m so excited for you guys! Hope everything goes well.

RBMN does such an excellent job taking care of their steam engines. I am so excited to see the 425 when it’s all done after overhaul. Well done to the RBMN for doing such good work on her

What is the heritage of 2102 ?

I really did not know Prince was supposed to take ownership of Lamberts Point! The more you know!

The reading and northern 2102 look amazing me soo interesing how he look on duel on 425 in 2028 or 2027

Heading up to Jim Thorpe to see 2102’s first train of 2024.

The fat beast is now awaken 💯💪

Nicely done on 425, she'll now run while 2102 is in operation now.

I wish they could add more tickets for Port Clinton.

She has such a beautiful whistle and I'm in love with that stack talk. A graceful lady, indeed!😊

How's 425's inspection going is she going to be able to run again?

Andy definitely had the best seat in the house for going backwards. I’m sure the deck of the Black Diamond is a better seat during excursions.

425 bouta return soon right?

Wow 😮

She’s back 💛💛🖤🖤

She looks great in either direction. Beautiful. Engine ❤️🌹

Andy sure is living the life.

So excited to ride the Iron Horse Ramble on June 22nd from Nesquehoning to Tunkhannock in the Salisbury Beach. This summer it’s going to be officially “1 YEAR” since I did an article on the Parlor Car during last year’s Iron Horse Ramble on July 1st to feature in my live steam club’s “Pennsylvania Live Steamers” gazette and made sure to share my article with the railroad once it got published. Last year was such a great experience because the Parlor Car was in between Andy’s private cars the Black Diamond and Glen Onoko Falls. Getting to walk through the Glen Onoko Falls in order to enter the Parlor Car was a bonus even though I didn’t get to actually ride in Glen Onoko Falls but walking through it for the first still made my day even more memorable because it’s not every day that you get offered an opportunity to see the inside of a private car. Huge thanks to the Reading Blue Mountain and Northern railroad who really appreciated my article on the Parlor Car! My Dad and I are looking forward to our ride on June 22nd in the new Salisbury Beach while riding behind 2102 out of the new Nesquehoning Campus station. See you on June 22nd!🚂😊

Maybe the R&N can do caboose hop Railfan excursions with a lineup of cabooses in the future!

That is so cool!

I'd sure to love to experience riding in a caboose. I don't know many places that offer them for a good price, let alone ride.

Rode in the Scenic View on a Reading to Jim Thorpe trip in 2022! Great trip, extremely polite and informative staff! 10/10 would highly recommend!

looks like I am in for a nice trip on May 17. see you all at the you tube meet and greet. think I seen a bathroom in the video?

Question, are there plans to eventually paint scenic view into R&N colors? I don’t mind it’s current scheme I’m just curious seeing how it’s one of the few that’s yet to get a repaint since being bought by Iowa Pacific.

I think it would be awesome if you ran these cars behind 2102, but I'm guessing that's a no-go because of the tunnels on the excursion routes.

I do remember riding the Lookout mountain I first rode it believe this or not while I was in grade school from Bluefield to narrows on the NW .

🤓 I appreciate this vid, was very enjoyable have a great day! :)
