Various Reading and Northern shots including locomotives such as the SD40-2, SW8M, and SD50.
Scene one: Reading and Northern train RGQA leaves Norfolk Southern's Reading yard and is seen crossing both NS main tracks at Belt interlocking on March 28, 2009. Motive power is RBMN SD40-2 3052 and RBMN SD50M 5022.
Scene two: Reading and Northern switching job on June 30, 2009 heads down to Tuckerton to shift around freight cars in the small-yard. Motive power is SW8M 803 and SW8M 802. After that, we see the power heading northbound through Hamburg, then working in Port Clinton yard, which is one of the main head quarters to the RBMN railroad. Both units have a Nathan M3 horn.
Scene three: A light SD50M 5049 heads northbound through Tuckerton after dropping off cars on the Blue Mountain branch at Laureldale.

802 )& 803 are beautiful !!!
The sound quality on this one is impressive.
Wow ! Very nice vid! Perfect sound of the perfect sounding Locos.
I like this railroad. They have a good fleet. Plus I saw of there open hoppers in Harisburg, PA.
Excellent work!
Great Job as usual Eric!
Awesome video.
man those SW8M's are awesome!
Wicked shots!
crystal clear video !
SHIT! I just found this video of yours. I love seeing old switchers like the two SW's working here. I grew up in Vancouver BC with the short line BC "Hydro" Railway. They had a fleet of 13 old yellow SW9's and three MP15's. This video reminds me of them. Great filming as always, thanks.
love how they didnt connect to those hoppers the first time!
Awesome video! 5/5
@o00o00ozy If those are former Conrail SW8Ms, it's because they have 645 power assemblies on 567 blocks. It's a very common upgrade when rebuilding 567 blocks. The "E" power assemblies are more reliable and more efficient than the old A through D types. They also change the sound around a bit. Other common "567E" blocks are Canadian National's GP9RMs and BNSFs few remaining SD9s/SD10s.
Nice!
I saw 803 on July 7th this year parked at Laurel at the station

so kool....those switchers are awesome
@TheRush341 I don't know if R&N upgraded to narrowband in 2011, but it they did, it would require 160.7700. Otherwise, 160.770 is the normal frequency; however, if they changed to narrowband, you need to buy a scanner capable of receiving narrowband frequencies.
At 6:25 -- I need that as my ringtone. LOL. Those are 645's right? Outstanding video Eric. Great locations and angles and everything. That's a really great railroad there. 10/5 Kyle
SW8's have EMD 567B engines. I'm not sure why, but the 803 and 802 sound an awful like 645's. But R&N designates them as having 800 horsepower, so they must be the 567's.
@o00o00ozy But to be honest, I think 160.770 will work fine even if they swapped to narrowband. I really don't know.
@o00o00ozy It's possible to repower a 567 with 645 power assembles, and that will make them sound like 645's.
the first train would've been better if 5022 was at the front
If you were using a scanner for this run do you know what the freguency is for R&N?
@railroadlover Crazy.
@o00o00ozy Is it just 160.770 because there isnt enough room to put the last 0.
Bello
@o00o00ozy Alright, thank you!
What kind of camera are you using man? I like it, and i'm in the market for a new camera.
Canon HG20.
What's this noise at 1:25?
