Great News! And rail-centered.
Here's some more 2102, shining like a new penny!
I don't know about everyone else but the general look of that T-1 reminds me of the unstreamlined Class J's the N&W built during WW2.

There's another video out there I'll pass along after I've watched it.
And God bless and keep Andy Muller and his crew of true believers!
Even more.

If it's like the other RBM&N excursions I'll bet the tickets sell out in 30 seconds!
Tickets went on sale February 15th for excursions behind A RESTORED 2102.
First trip is set for May 28, with more to follow in the fall. Go to the Reading, Blue Mountain and Northern Web site for information or reservations.
