So nice to see steam on the Reading and Northern without needing diesel help or even a water car
Every time I see this railroad it just brings warmth to my heart
Every time 2102 gets some light to run, it’s getting even more epically beautiful!
The wonderful technology. An attractive scenery.
Everytime you come back to this line, its getting more and more beautiful.
Delighted Thanks 🎉❤🎉❤❤🎉❤🎉
Great overhaul
Great footage! Glad we both got to see 2102 on these 4 days 👍
Great video. The audio is perfect. You really captured that on board sound spot on, without all of the wind noise.
Im just in shock. Award winning editing, photography!
awesome video from start to finish, ive ridden 4 times already. twice last year and twice this year and i keep going back for more behind 2102. you really cannot find another regional railroad that will offer big mainline steam with 1920's open window style passenger cars at track speed. anyone can do a tourist line any day or time of the year. but riding behind big steam is a rare and special opportunity.
She is so graceful,a true beauty....
God damn it I love this 4-8-4.
Sweet video!
Me yega el tren gracias

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ beautiful every thing beautiful I wish God protect you,,,,God bless you and protect you from strangers savagery
the reason why that engine is so powerful is because of how well the drafting is, if you watch the firebox on this thing from idle to running, that fire gets super hot within a minute max, that drafting is because of the way the blast pipe is designed in the smoke box, that's the reason why its so loud and look how high the smoke is shot out of the smoke stack, should have been patented as "power draft"
I wonder how old is he 🖤💛
Yo. Awesome shots. At the 50:30 mark I was at Miller's Crossing Rd. with others on hand for the August 13th run.
Outstanding footage! I make a brief cameo at 5:27 and 10:28!
Yee Yee Borther!
Very nice! I assume that the high pitched whistle is the original hooter and the other from some other railroad? also, how much of the original Reading Rambler excursions does this train travel on?

Both whistles are Reading whistles, and the Rambles ran on multiple different lines, but this follows original Reading tracks from North Reading up to Haucks, then from Haucks to Jim Thorpe it’s CNJ
Holly shit

Did anyone develop steam and electric, just like diesel and electric, train engines.
