Train Ride with 2102 on the Winter Iron Horse Ramble! - Reading Blue Mtn. & Northern RR - 2/14/26

Описание: Do you like loud steam trains? This video is for you!
Hey y'all! Today's video is all about the train ride on the Winter Iron Horse Ramble train, pulled by steam engine #2102, at the Reading, Blue Mountain and Northern Railroad in Pennsylvania.
Those of you who have been with this channel for a while know that I usually chase trains, but today I wanted to ride because engine 2102 makes a lot of stack talk, which is the sound of loud steam exhaust, and being on the train would let me listen to it the whole trip.
The train trip starts in Reading, and travels 60 miles to Jim Thorpe. My friends ‪@MidnightRailfan‬ ‪@jacksrrstudios‬ ‪@rails.unlimited‬ and myself, boarded at Port Clinton so we could see the train arrive. The train ride not only gave us lots of stack talk, but we saw so many landmarks on the railroad, which chasers on the road can only see so many of in one trip. These included tunnels, river bridges, searchlight signals, and the high bridge at Hometown.
