One word; unreal.
When @Djcman331 and myself began planning our 10-day escapade to the Alleghenies, the obvious crown jewel could be no less than the T-1 herself. Hell, the whole idea sprung from @BalticFilms144 scampering off to nab her on her test run in the spring, and everything else throughout the junket was a mere "add-on". We had heard the stories of what she could do, especially when saddled with the monster passenger hauls the R&N has become known for, but when 809,000 pounds of Homebuilt, Fast Freight, 4-8-4 is blasting past you wielding every ounce of it's 5,500 horsepower on the territory it was built to use it on, nothing, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, compares to being there.
So here it is, a whole hours worth of the Reading Company's finest, showing the world thew way it was and dragging the past ever so closer to the present. From the Port Clinton Steam Shops to the tunnels at Tamaqua and Nesquehoning, the Jim Thorpe Wye, Hometown Hill, and just about everywhere else in between. Over two days with two very different trains and completely opposite weather, she dominated, showcasing the very thing the shops folks at Reading intended when they rolled 2102 and her 29 sisters out into the world.
For those who built her, those who restored her, and those who ran her, past and present, this is for you. Thank you.
And to Andy Muller and the Reading and Northern.......You are damned right I'll be back.
Enjoy Everybody! There is plenty more to come!
