On a hot day to kick off the summer, we watch the Reading & Northern 425 putting on an awesome show as it exits Tamaqua Tunnel conquering the grade of the former Reading Railroad.
Beautiful engine, that was so great... ...until I saw a nasty, stinking diesel tagging along! Who gave the diesel permission to blow a horn? I’d much rather hear a whistle!
The R&N is becoming a lot more extra bigger and expandable to grow in the future!
Amazing video.
Have you heard that R&N just acquired the 19 Mile Trackage Line from Carbon County, Pennsylvania? I think it’s great news!
Has your hearing recovered yet?
I was there on the 3pm run and it was deafening. It was a fun day!
HUH??
When does 425’s boiler expire? It seems like it’s ran for years now.
IIRC it's due to go down after this season.
