The Road of Anthracite. After stopping briefly for engine service, the Reading & Northern's Locomotive 425 gets underway on her southbound run to Jim Thorpe. Her 69" drivers give away the fact that she's a fast horse. About six months ago, the locomotive was re-painted in a sharp new livery, which carries her current owner's herald, but is reminiscent of her days on the Gulf Mobile & Ohio.
Images from charters and regular operations depicting the Reading & Northern's two steam locomotives, the 4-8-4 Northern #2102 and the 4-6-2 Pacific #425.
