THE READING RAILROAD: WHAT HAPPENED?

- This is a look back in time to the "Anthracite" roads that once made the eastern rail scene more interesting and colorful. These principal roads were the Lehigh Valley, Jersey Central, Reading, D&H and the Erie Lackawanna Railroads.
The common theme was their early success based on hauling anthracite coal from a unique area in Pennsylvania and the decline of that business. The last decade of these roads largely depended on a declining business in hauling "bridge traffic".
The corporate history of these five roads is woven into a wealth of wonderful, all-color, railroading scenes. Our animated maps, made especially for our videos, are used to keep the viewer more informed. - Авто/Мото
Miles of smiles! Thank you.
Excellent. Thanks
Thanks. Brought back memories. Commuted on the Reading lines on the West Trenton line from 1965 - 1970.
I so loved the Reading❤
Wonderful glimpses of the Reading. Even with a crowded car it was difficult to make earnings with an engineer, a fireman, a conductor and a trainman required for a single RDC, but the Reading had a classy Passenger service, non the less.
Loss of mail and packages in volume bankrupted the whole system coast to coast Oct 1967.
I enjoyed watching the ALCo Centuries of the Reading!
I’ve got the entire Dvd. It is excellent.
Reading & Northern still rides the Reading's home rails,🤔 so the Reading never left
Every train ticket taxed to help build highways and airports until 1962.
The ICC destroyed all these railroads.
