Iron Horse Rambles (6.22.24) – New Nesquehoning Station

    This trip with my family of 6 was a waste of a day. The town felt like a gohst town although very pretty, it was 90 degrees so we purchased the open view glass tickets but the entire ride we didnt see any great views. The waterfall was lame and it was hot inside. Half the passengers were bored and slept. I recommend doing the rafting trip instead on a dam release, youll get much better views. If you want to doubke check my review go to google or yelp and check lowest score.

    Thanks for the report Jamie! Right, "She'll be done when she's done." As the R&N's a working railroad I'd have to assume the 425's being rehabbed on a "time available" basis. She'll run again, she's too good to be left in a shed as a monument, her fans just have to be patient. You know, some might want 425 redone in a black paint job but personally I like the Blue Comet inspired paint scheme!

    So excited to ride the Iron Horse Ramble on June 22nd from Nesquehoning to Tunkhannock in the Salisbury Beach. This summer it’s going to be officially “1 YEAR” since I did an article on the Parlor Car during last year’s Iron Horse Ramble on July 1st to feature in my live steam club’s “Pennsylvania Live Steamers” gazette and made sure to share my article with the railroad once it got published. Last year was such a great experience because the Parlor Car was in between Andy’s private cars the Black Diamond and Glen Onoko Falls. Getting to walk through the Glen Onoko Falls in order to enter the Parlor Car was a bonus even though I didn’t get to actually ride in Glen Onoko Falls but walking through it for the first still made my day even more memorable because it’s not every day that you get offered an opportunity to see the inside of a private car. Huge thanks to the Reading Blue Mountain and Northern railroad who really appreciated my article on the Parlor Car! My Dad and I are looking forward to our ride on June 22nd in the new Salisbury Beach while riding behind 2102 out of the new Nesquehoning Campus station. See you on June 22nd!🚂😊
