Reading & Northern #2102 Freight Test Run 4/26/22
As we turned the clock back even further back to April 22nd, 2022. I take my first ever outing onto the Redding & Northern metals to see R&N class T-1 4-8-4 #2102 on the now infamous 50 car test. The day started just north of North Reading PA, following the mainline all the way to Jim Thorpe, where she wye the whole train back for a run in to Tamaqua. Here she dropped off the train then proceeded back up the line to wye herself for the move to Port Clinton but by that time the crew time had outlawed they had to call in another crew from the yard in Tamaqua to pick up the engine and drag it back all the way to Port Clinton. This day has truly cemented why she is a popular steam engine in this part of the state. This was also another trip where I had experience some mechanical issues both with the camcorder I was borrowing at the time and my tripod at that time was also broken so the operations of it was not the greatest, and I tried my best with what I had but nonetheless This is surely a memorable trip that I will not be forgetting anytime soon. My guide on this day was a good friend of mine @GTRailFanProductions

    Good God Almighty, NCSTL 576's whistle on 765, just gives me chills everytime. Reminds me of the 1991 NRHS Convention with 765 wearing a C&O Hancock Long Bell 3-Chime on the Auxiliary Cord. I'm sad I missed out on this, but great video, Chris! Keep the videos coming!

    Looks like an empty south. During the short lived coal contract the CN had the aluminum hoppers on the sub for dedicated coal service. Some of the B&LE hoppers also were put into this service. Ironically the short return of coal brought the end off the T-motors to the sub as CN wanted to move 110 loads north, the coal quickly left but the IC's stayed. Strange twist of fate
