Reading & Northern 425: The Last Highball (4K)

Like us on Facebook! pages/Blue-C...
After 15 years of running excursions on the Reading & Northern, the time finally came for the last runs of ex-Gulf, Mobile & Northern 4-6-2 “Pacific” #425. The pride of the Reading & Northern’s passenger department was steamed up for one last round of Santa Claus Special excursions out of Reading Outer Station to Port Clinton, PA. While this isn’t exactly the end of the line for the engine’s operating career, it’s still a bit somber to see the engine for the last time for a good while. Hopefully the engine will see service again soon, while in the meantime ex-Reading T-1 4-8-4 #2102 takes over the duties that the 425 carried for all those years. Now, please watch this exciting video as we say goodbye to the 425, brought to you by Blue Comet Productions!
This video was filmed on December 17th, 2022.

I hope Reading & Northern 425 would be back in service soon. We all know it’s going to have a 1472 Day Inspection.
