  • Took a fun ride on the READING & NORTHERN RAILROAD.1ST they let me put my gopro hero 9 on the front of the engine for an awesome view up to White Haven PA. This was a great train ride. Relax and ride comfortably in vintage coaches built as early as 1917 pulled by diesel engines. The trip follows the majestic Lehigh River over bridges, through Glen Onoko, and into the Lehigh Gorge State Park. It was about 1hr 15 minute train ride. I did the bike train. You put your bike on the train then bike the 25 miles back to the town of Jim Thorpe.

    It's quite apparent that they have taken care of the track and roadbed. New ties and rail along side the RofW is apparent. Very nice and TY.

    THANK YOU AND THE CLASS ACT THAT IS THE R&N RR for making this beautiful video available to those of us that are handicapped and otherwise haven't got the money to enjoy this ride first-hand!!!! May I suggest that you "kick this video up a couple of notches" by including a tasteful map of the R&N AND the route of this ride -- and also adding some discreet white lettering at the bottom of the screen pointing out points of historical & other interest along the route, such as abandoned towers, siding & station point names, siding & spur names, rivers, other RR (branches), etc. etc. if possible. It would also be interesting to know how fast that big deer was galloping, pacing the train, earlier-on in the video! I second the motion to make more videos like this one if you can!! Nice Work!!!

    I rode that train in 2019, but back then we didn't go that far... it was an about 20min ride and then turn at 20:08 and go back. However, great view from the head of the train! Love it!

    Didn't realize what a speedway the old LVRR was through the gorge. Conrail replaced all the searchlights with tri-lights I see. When you see the bike trail at various points that is the old CNJ railroad. The tower in ruins near the beginning is CNJ's Nesquehoning Junction. That track was relaid by RBMN after they condensed operations onto the LVRR in '65.

    😅 If you're looking for a nice leisurely train ride through the countryside, this ain't it.
    Looked like he pulled out in notch 5 and was at 8 before the third car passed the starting point.
    ...hope everybody was seated before they took off.

      It was a nice ride. The train was just taking all of us to the next town so we could all bike back. Thank you for watching.
