  • Reading & Northern's fast freight service takes us on a chase from North Reading to Pittston following the famed NRFF led by the freshly painted 5019 in the then-new Fast Freight paint scheme, leading it's first ever trips on the NRFF at the end of May 2021.

    The videos on your channel are some of the best out there. The videography is absolutely outstanding and the narration professional and highly informative.
    As a model railroader who uses the Reading and Northern and Norfolk Southern in the area as inspiration, this kind of video is a wealth of information for me.
    Best regards and looking forward to future videos!

    I don't normally watch a lot of diesel videos - but you put together a wonderful and cohesive video that covers a run of the NRFF through some scenic and rugged railroad territory. Your narration is informative and enhances the overall storytelling. Great job! I watched the whole thing through in one sitting.

    We are very lucky to have such a Great Railroad in our backyard practically. With a very rich history, and great old signals and stations of eras past. They tie it all together on the R&N!

    New to your page, love Short Lines Railroads, I am from Central North Carolina, Smithfield/Selma area where we have NS/CSX plus Amtrak about 1/2 miles from my home. CSX runs North to South and NS run east to west with Diamond at Selma train station. Thanks Central Penn Rail Productions for a great video and beautiful mountain backgrounds. Blessings.

    Love this video! I work as one of the rafting guides on the Lehigh through the Gorge so terrible to see an injury happen. But it is a great view from the river on the rare days the FF aligns when I'm working. LMK if you ever need another spot or 2 from within the Gorge and keep up the great work!

    Odd that R&N is adding CTC when its essentially a short line. Yet NS is removing it in the same area and handles a lot more traffic and intermodal.

      It's in use up to Mt Carmel to service international paper. It's intact all the way Shamokin, but past Mt Carmel it's owned by SEDA-COG / North Shore railroad. Beyond Shamokin, parts of the Reading and PRR ROW were salvaged to make one line to Sunbury.
