RBMN 2102 Empty Coal Drag

  • I never thought in my entire lifespan I'd see steam pulling freight as normally we see them pulling excursions these days. Originally people expected 2102 to be tested on the NRFF (a mixed freight from Reading to Pittston) but why do that when you can test her in her natural environment... coal duties. While empty these cars were needed in Tamaqua so they could be loaded at the mines there so 2102 took the cars from Reading to Jim Thorpe to simulate the upcoming Iron Horse Rambles then dropped the cars at Tamaqua and then after spinning at Hawkes got towed home by a power set from Port Clinton. Follow me and Snuggle Bee as we follow 2102 across the Anthracite road as tons of other railfans join the literal convoy following 2102.

      She's a personal favorite of mine and a close 2nd to all time favorite (behind the PRR K4s) Since my area is mostly Ex Reading territory engines much like 2102 practically made my home area possible in the 1st place which is why I hold a very high level of respect for 2102. She's also one of the only steam engines I know of who pulls revenue earning freight (mainly coal drags) on a common basis, Even UP can't do what RBMN has been doing with 2102.

    Can't read the name of the train on the side of the power. Horrible camera action. Also couldn't read the caption because the color blended into the video. Rate this video as poor. Rate content very good. Try moving the camera a little bit to cover the entire engine. Pick a different color caption to stand out.
