On June 22, 2024, Reading & Northern's 4-8-4 T1 locomotive number 2102 ran an Iron Horse Rambles excursion from Nesquehoning to Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania and back. In this video, you will see many of the locations that the consist roared past in between including White Haven, Mountain Top, Laurel Run, Dupont, Pittston, and Falls.

Huge thanks to my dad for not only driving me around for the 2nd time within the past 30 days but also giving me another angle at many of the locations!

If you enjoyed, make sure to like and subscribe for more. I'm hoping to be able to chase the Pittston Ramble in August, but that is very much up in the air right now.

For the full 7 minutes of pacing, go to my 2nd channel:    • Pacing Reading & Northern #2102 Out o...

Anyways, now that there are two months before the next ramble, this probably means that the majority of videos coming will be NASCAR related, with stop motions and the Pocono race vlog. Thanks for watching, hope you all enjoyed, and hope to see you all return to my channel!

    If not for nothing, fellas of the Reading & Northern, 2102 is easily the CLEANEST locomotive I have ever seen. From smokebox to tender she is spotless! Thats a rare thing. Well done!
  • I am a railroad fan grew up next to the D&H mainline and am very pleased to see Resding & Northern run a fan trip all the way to Tunkhannock!!!
  • Magnificent catches of the trains coming by and pass, I like it 5 stars. Thumbs up. Keep up the perfect work, you earned a new subscriber, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.

    I think I was either right in front of you or right behind you during your chase of it near Tunkhannock. As when you passed that person in the purple shirt I was right nearby the engine at that same area chasing it too.

    Support the acquisition of the Shamokin Valley RR by the Reading and Northern.
  • This is just awesome how they seem to run her a full bore for a good chunk of the trip! What was the reason for throwing the diesels on the train at 15:39 taking her through the gap?
  • Great video man! Hopefully, the chase wasn't completely foamer central. There are a lot of great shots and locations you can get along this route but you definitely can't get them all, whether it be because of terrain, time, or traffic. Nonetheless, as long as you had fun, then things should be golden!
  • Nice! Was there any specific reason why diesel engines were utilized for pulling the entire train at some parts?
  • @MrSteelman335
    What was with the diesels halfway through the first part of the trip?
