Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad Museum Photo Freight With LA&L RS-1 #20
I've been volunteering here for about 8 months now, most of the time I obviously spend not standing behind a camera, but I finally got the chance to take some time and film the railroad in all of its switchback glory.

Reading & Northern 2102 - 50 Car Coal Train - Pushing Steam Power To It's Max
Переглядів 6 тис.2 роки тому
The Reading & Northern Railroad puts newly restored 2102 to the test as they hook it to a string of 50 hopper cars and a caboose, running from Reading to Jim Thorpe and back. Watch 2102 struggle to climb hometown hill on the return trip. This is the kind of thing people read about in old magazines from many years ago.

    My son loves trains 🚆🚋🚞🚝🚊🚉🚈🚇🚅🚄🚃🚂🛤 especially railcars like those he thinks they are highly underrated and they should be preserved, restored and put back into service. He also thinks that Siemens, Progress Rail, or any other company that builds railroad equipment should build copies of RDC's and the departments of transportation should put them to work on lines that don't get rail service anymore carrying passengers and mail.

  • @gretchenchadwick8343

    My son really likes trains especially Alco's like that one. He says many people like them because they are not as common and are built real rugged.
