- The return of the Iron Horse Rambles, featuring Reading & Northern T-1 2102 thundering through the hills of eastern Pennsylvania between North Reading and Jim Thorpe. Seriously, if you don't have temporary hearing loss at some point during this video, you are not getting the in person experience.
The Iron Horse Rambles were excursions by the Reading Railroad between 1959 and 1964 carried out by T-1s 2100, 2102, and 2124. Fast forward to today, with the recent restoration of 4-8-4 "Northern" Type 2102, the Reading & Northern railroad operates over some of the former Reading Railroad trackage, recreating their own Rambles through a rejuvenated network of tracks through the Anthracite Region of Pennsylvania.
The trips leave Outer Station along the Reading Railroad, entering the Central Railroad of New Jersey at Haucks terminating at the CNJ station in Jim Thorpe. Period accurate signals salvaged from the former railways adorn the route's present day CTC system, giving a feeling that you could step back in time for a moment to witness the power of steam in its heyday. R&N 2102 is mainline steam at its finest! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Incredibly talented Rail photographer. Very creative,to include railside shots of beautiful wildflowers the deer, the snapping turtle hanging out in the pool of water in the stream, under the bridge. This is the best video of the 2102 I've found yet.
No matter how many times I see it. The sight of 2102 under steam leaves me speechless over how beautiful it is.
SHE is...
What an epic return! The Iron Horse Rambles are back with a bang. Can't wait to embark on new adventures and witness the beauty of the journey. All aboard for another unforgettable ride!
Oh my dear Lord, this was incredible! Words almost fail me!
This wasn't just a rail video, it was a trip back in time and 2102 was the time machine. It's been said and it's true that the best historic artifacts have the power to pull you back into their own era and 2102 certainly does that!
Thanks so much for being there (And getting rained on!) and taking us along with you!
A masterpiece of film making!
My dad and younger brother road on this excursion back in the 1960s. I know this video would be of great interest to both of them. RIP you guys.
Very creative angles and excellent photography...and no others blocking your shots!
The quality on R&N 2102 is Fantastic on the shots. I really liked the service for 2102 you caught. I was at the second Rambler event back on Sunday, August 13, 2023. It was my first time visiting the R&N. Started out at OS for the hookup then the action really began just north at Cross keys. Then had to hurry back to Hamburg after I took a wrong way. It didn't stopped me for the chase. I enjoy it. Plus I saw the NRFF for the first time. R&N did a awesome job. I didn't mind the double whistle on 2102. I liked it. A very fantasic job you did.
My 101 year old father has always liked trains, steam engines especially. Lately we have been watching a lot of videos about trains and this one is my favorite so far. You got some beautiful footage 🙂, makes me want to take a trip up to Pennsylvania.
Fantastic video! The quality coming from this camera, as well as the audio, are sooo good! Cinematic productions of trains like this make the story really interesting. Keep it up. 👏👍
The cinematography in this video is exceptionally beautiful. The scenery and all the little details in each shot truly bring this work to life. My three-year-old son and I thoroughly enjoyed watching it, as he loves steam trains.
This is by far the best video coming out of any of the three events, excellent work. I hope to see more like it in the future!
Absolutely love Jim Thorpe. Didn’t get to ride the train but hoping to do it next time I pass through. Central PA’s steam history is why I love living in this state
Incredible footage of an incredible locomotive!
Thanks for sharing.😊
what an incredible video. both video and audio quality are perfect. thanks for uploading. i'd say this is one of the best sounding steam engines in the world.
you dont need words listen to the engine and the whistles and scenery ,.!
thank you !!!
Not that it’s ever bad, but the production quality was particularly fantastic on this video. A story was told without any words spoken at all. Great work. 👍🏻
I couldn’t have said it better myself
No j vino no no no
Is it consolidation from RT2 😊?
Reading 2102 one the most beautiful trains in world 💛🖤
Just simply amazing! 😊
My two year old loves watching steam train videos and I do have to say this is probably the best we’ve watched to date
Fantastic video of 2102, Eric! This is definitely one of the best comprehensive videos I have seen of it so far.
awesome video, from start to finish. i especially enjoyed the servicing shots of shane and the crew topping off the tender with coal. and shooting the rods with the alamite gun. really great shots
Excellent job! Loved your video.
Wow!!! No whistles of other steam locomotives can beat the sound of 2102's "shrill" whistle. Listening to 2102's AWESOME, ear-piercing whistle is exhilarating!!! And 2102 is magnificent. I LOVE watching this extraordinary steam engine in action. The audio and cinematography is superb!!! 🎥
Amazing stuff!
In love with this locomotive and with your video.
Awesome video!
I rode behind the big girl on the July 1st 2023 Reading Rambles trip. What a ride!
I bet that was a great experience! I haven't had the chance to ride one of the trips yet, I was hoping to last year but had too much going on.
Wow. Gorgeous cinematography! Especially the transition around 29:00
That's one Badass Locomotive!!!
I have seen 2102 3 times so far! I had the pleasure of seeing 2102 pull her first passenger train in over 30 years.
Absolutely amazing footage!
Great footage as usual.
That deer looks beautiful!
beautiful shots and audio. I hope you're proud of this video.
Oh my Lordy, play it again maestro ! Brought tears.
Very well produced
Nice - and local for me here in central Pennsy! Thanks for posting!
Never seen a steam engine so clean
This train has such a beautiful whistle I love it so much
thanks to all who are making all this.
Love this video! No terrible shots 2 feet from the tracks, no repeat scenes that flow awfully, and no boring shots from riding in the coaches. Other videographers should take note!!
Beautiful!
😂😢😮😮😅
Outstanding job! You did the 2102 proud ❤️
Great video
What a great looking train! Great work!
Diesels just can't compete with the awe-inspiring beauty of a big steam engine.
Great video Eric ....
NO Music, NO nerdy narration, NO idiotic Max Headroom Edits, and last but not least, NO over-dramatic, too long intro. Nicely-done!
I get some serious Normal Rockwell/O Winston Link vibes at around 16:30.
Can’t wait to see 2102 again this year ❤ and great video :)
Pretty sure I got some hearing damage standing near the tracks as they came out of Jim Thorpe through Nesquehoning, never heard an engine bark like that and had to cover my ears and got covered in cinders after getting my shot. Quite the machine
Awesome video, one of my favorite ever!
Fantastic camera work. Will be watching more of your channel.
Nice Video
🍂🌳🇮🇳🌳🍂
Lindas paisagesns...magnífico...
Steam Sound Master 😍😍😍😍
10:00 poor deer has probably never heard or seen a steam loco before, and doesn't know what's happening. I hope she didn't run on the tracks when the train came.
Nice footage. I wish railroads brought them back. Maybe than people would think twice about crossing the tracks in front of the train.
Trains today, specially here in Europe have ridiculous horns: "Pi-Hoonk!!"
And still people complain about noise. Maybe it's not the noise that's the problem, and complaints would stop if proper trains came by again.
Love the photography!
Magnificent
This Is the Best steam locomotive ever
way good thanks.
Fantastic shots!
Great video as always! 🤙🏻
Nice video, like !!!
Thank God that deer was safe and didn't get hurt
La cloche résonne tres biens le bruit du moteur pas mieux surtout a l arrêt la sonorités grandioses tres belles locomotive raçé very magnifique$.

8:01 Get the Steam-Horse how it starts to move...
Ну Круто ездим эти круто у паровоза пробуксовка это круто мне это очень нравится ставлю этому вашему паровоза с прлбксовкай лайк
9:44 Didn't think to see a deer in this video. I wonder if he's just excited to see a train or something.

This is incredibly frustrating. Would it really have been that hard to just show the entire train in one shot aside from the very end in the credits? I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to be able to count the cars and such.
Damn, I love when irrelevant CZcams channels whose names sound like the beginning of computer code share their shit takes. 👏🏼 🫡

First, I offered my own opinion (admittedly in a perhaps overdramatic manner, but nonetheless).
Second, my name is both a pun and an anagram. The pun is that the top two lines of a Z look like a seven, so 007-James Bond. The anagram is very much related to railroading, something rather specific, in fact. Here's a hint-there are three pieces of two characters each. I also removed four letters to make it cryptic.
Then why don't you go out and chase it? Sometimes you just can't beat it with the time you have by waiting for the whole train to go by.
I thought Eric's production was spectacular. If you want to sit there and count, why don't you go back to school? 🤣
@@PRL2204 Replying five months later to something that I posted while particularly sick and completely forgot about is an incredible achievement. Why don't you do something productive yourself?
I agree that it was spectacular, but at the time I was quite sick and cranky. I do apologize for the attitude, but I have to note that even now, when I'm feeling much better, my health and financial means massively restrict my ability to travel. At least I can get up and walk around now for short periods-there are many people who don't even have that. So please be understanding-we don't all have the ability to actually chase ourselves. Whether its because they live too far away, don't have enough money, or don't have the health, there are a long list of reasons why this might happen, so please don't just act like its laziness on the part of other people.
Esta chida la locomotora y hermosa potente llena de energia para continuar en su camino con mucho cariño y con todo de corazon❤😊🚂
❤รถไฟวิ่งไปตามขบวน ครับ
Это очень красиво, в паравозах я вижу душу как будто они живые даже слышно как они дышут.
Great video
