40th Anniversary Locomotive!! - RBMN
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 жов 2024
- 2023 celebrated RBMN's 40th year in operation. From inception in the early '80s, the Reading Blue Mountain & Northern Railroad has seemingly stood behind one common phrase which has directed its business endeavors and that is...
"Do everything with excellence and with great care."
From freight to passenger services all orchestrated by Mr. Andrew Muller Jr., RBMN has always strived to be the standard of short line railroading and business mastery. Fiercely independent, creatively divergent, masterful in inception, RBMN thanks YOU for your support and independently unique journeys with us.
We wish for you to join us, in effect, by "blowing out the candles" of our birthday cake by viewing locomotive 2023, christening it officially into service as of August this year.
Special thanks to our Paint Department. Their attention to detail and painstaking sourcing of materials to get that "JUST RIGHT" color on all our cars and locomotives is a testament to the fundamental ethos which made RBMN a shining-star in the rail industry. But don't take our word for it! A simple look at our 2102 has made onlookers gasp at the luminescent black and gold comet screaming though the mountains and valleys of RBMNs rail-line.
Additional thanks to our videographer and editor @JamieMakin for the exceptional work behind the camera and thoughtful editing which respects the rail industry and local history.

Wow, you should be as proud as we are! Good to hear that you had a hand in creating the paint scheme!
Simple and special! Nice!
That's what we were aiming for! Thank you!
Jamie, I heard a rumor that Mr. Muller is having a locomotive repainted in Blue Mountain & Reading livery, possibly to be renumbered 1983, as a heritage unit. Any truth to that?

Stay tuned, you never know what might be coming out of our paint shop next!
Beautiful!!!

What kind of horn in on the #2023?
#2023 sports an RS3L horn. Sounds pretty good, doesn't it?
I'm just curious but do y'all have any locomotives that aarav reading railroad Heritage running I could be painted back into their respective livery ? Just curios
Steam locomotive #2102 is of Reading Company heritage and is painted almost identically to their "Iron Horse Rambles" scheme that was used in the 1960s. SW1500 #1548 is also a former Reading unit. Who knows, that might be the next engine to be specially painted!
