- The Reading & Northern is a railroad with a lot of pride.. From their everyday locomotives that reflect their Philadelphia & Reading heritage to the former Lehigh Gorge Scenic Rwy blue & gray to the current maroon & yellow rebuilt GP30s.. RBMN has had its share of unorthodox paint schemes....

Awesome Video My Father Hired in on The DT&I RR In Flat Rock Michigan in 1963 and Retired in 1998 Then The GT Grand Trunk RR The SD38 Were Mostly used for The Hump and Road Job's from Flat Rock Michigan to Springfield Ohio and to Ironton Ohio It's Really SAD that The GT Destroyed The DT&I It's Now Hardly Anything there today Now CN Owns it which isn't saying much either Thank You for the Awesome Video Awesome Memories of Growing up with The DT&I RR with My Father
Thanks for your words and for sharing those memories with us.
@@Trains21 the DTI SD38s "RARELY" left Michigan.
If I remember,, I only saw 2 in Ohio.
DTI was an efficient operation.
always a treat back then to see DC6,DC7,DC8,DC9.
trackage rights agreements made DTI appear in many locations.--off the DTI system.
Very interesting!
G26C (export model of SD38) is used in my country for heavy freight dragging. Very reliable locomotives, seems the roots blown prime mover is more reliable roaring in run 8 all day long.
Thank you for that bit of history. I knew nothing of this. Nicely presented. Excellent video AC.
No problem Hans.. As always I thank you for watching.
Wonderful video, AC. Those SD38s are some of my very favorites
Thanks man.. Mine too.. But then again, I tend to like anything six-axle EMD.
One of the coolest sd38 I ever saw I had a pentrex railroad documentary on the short lines of Arizona and there's a copper-mine that uses railroads to move around there copper ore and that Railroad it has a gray and copper paint scheme that is badass it has Chevron stripes on the nose that are copper this was back in the 80s early 90s I think when this documentary was filmed I've never seen too many sd39 and those ones in Arizona look awesome it's been so many years since I've seen that documentary I can't even remember the name of the railroad if I find out what it is I'll let you know peace out AC have a great day
Thanks for sharing Austin.. Peace out.
Trains21 thank you for your tangents I love it when you show us all these different paint schemes on locomotives that's half the fun with diesel locomotives at least is the paint scheme that they wear one thing I miss about the locomotives in the 70s and the 80s was the Dual headlights like Rio Grande or Southern Civic or they had the lights by the number boards an oscillating lights and the lights on the nose and how search Civic had the emergency red light with the two headlights underneath it even back in the day like Nickel Plate Road used to have the double headlights set up with the oscillating headlights I've even seen some images of Seaboard coastline had some locomotives like that I miss the oscillating LED lights and the double headlight kit I like the way it used to be what the oscillating lights instead of ditch lights they were so much cooler something I love about watching railfan videos from the past there is freight trains with no spray paint tags I can't stand this gibberish that they spray paint on the side of train cars it's repulsive when I look at old school train videos there's no tags I wish that's the way trains were today peace out AC have a great day
Great video AC thanks for the history
You're welcome Ed. Thanks for watching.
It’s a shame the Reading and Northern SD38’s haven’t been seen on the Pittston Jobs since 2015.
That I really cool I've never seen that locomotive does it still run
Indeed it does, not sure where though.
The SD38s are great locos. They look good, and have an unmistakable chatter when in notch 8. Kind of a shame 2003 lost it's special paint job, but the horn it wears now sounds mighty fine! As a bit of a fun fact, the SD38s have Australian cousins called J26Cs. They were purchased by the New South Wales Government Railways as the 422 Class in 1969, and most are still in service today. While the 422 Class locos look nothing like SD38s they are mechanically identical.
I didn't know that, thanks for sharing.
Thank you for your kindness and cheerfulness🌷💎
Always makes me happy if i catch one going back to pittston. Thanks for the video.
No problem.. Thanks for watching.
Wonder how many times I've seen the 2003 running auto parts through Lansing, Mi. Grew up in the 70s and 80s with a view of the Conrail spur running up to the Diamond Reo plant. After the vacant plant burned in the early 80s, had a clean view of the Grand Trunk line on the other side. By the mid 80s, alot of DT&I were mixed in with the power. Sometimes, some C&NW also. Use to see 4-5 engines on a train quite often. Miss the old red white and blue.
Awesome video! I love older EMD's!
So do I!
Normally I don't like the commercials that you have to sit through before the video starts, but I just saw a preview of a new movie and I watched the whole thing because it was that good.
No guarantee that the movie will be great, sometimes the preview is better than the movie,
But this stars Kevin Bacon and Amanda Seyfried and they are both really great
It is called
You Should Have Left
Comes to on demand on the 19th
Normally I would not post like this, but the preview looks awesome
If the movie is as good, you really want to see this
A thriller and horror movie of some sort and they don't give anything away, but it looks amazing and I want to see it having just seen the preview.
Love trains and your videos are wonderful ❤️
I am in Quakertown and I am disabled and stuck in bed 99% of the time
RUclips is my way of seeing the places and doing the things that I can no longer do because of my health.
I know how much work it is.
I used to film trains in the Mechanicville NY area 2 decades ago, before smartphones
I lost all my mini digital tapes when I had to move to assisted living facility
I am out of those awful places now, fighting to stay at"home" in my trailer
I am grateful for your hard work showing me the outside world
Man too bad it's not wearing it's old "Celebrity" scheme
I know, right.
Yea, also I wanna say another great episode!
@@jerseyrailbuff4147 Thanks JR, much appreciated.
Doing the last digit of 3 on purpose?
Nah
Update, recently a SD38 #2000 was in Pittston for the first time since 2015.
Beautiful I love silver trucks that's why I love Union Pacific locomotives in the 60s 70s and 80s a lot of had silver trucks it looks so cool it brings out all the details in the side casting on the truck frames you see all the piping to the brake cylinders and all that stuff that's one thing I miss so much and that Union Pacific paint scheme is silver trucks they used to have them back in the day by the way that sd39 looks badass in that paint Scheme with silver trucks thank you for showing me this tangent graciously appreciate it AC have a great day
Thanks Austin, take care.
Trains21 you're welcome buddy I love it when you throw out a tangent keep up all the great work AC
True, silver trucks look great but they're way too underrated
I wonder why the RBMN took away 2003’s paint scheme. I know the WSOR has kept all of theirs.
I don't know, I wish they'd kept it too.
I hear because it was long after the 20th anniversary and it was taken out of service for quiet a bit.
R&N RailProductions hmm. I think CN still has a few 15th anniversary units.
Wisconsin Rail Productions it might also just because after sitting in the sun at port Clinton for years it looked so faded they needed to give it new paint.
R&N RailProductions yeah
It looks like a long locomotive - longer than a standard SD40 - more like an SD40-2.
In Egypt we have GE ES 40 ACI we call it the ferry, greeting from Africa👋🐪👍🐎
Cool, thanks for chiming in from the Mother Land! Greetings from the USA!
Thanks Mohammadd, greeting from the USA!
@@Trains21 You are welcome
@@Trains21 in arabic welcome or welcome means (ahlan wa sahlan) which means welcome and feel easy and friendly😉🐎🦅🏈👍👍
Another fine job my friend, keep up the good work
Thanks Tommy, I'll surely try.
0:55 GT
Great video.love history.I'm sure E.L..ran these when I was a kid🍻🍻👍👍
I don't recall EL having SD38s but I could be wrong. Thanks for your words.
@@Trains21 This is true. EL didn't have any non-turbo 645 power.
Super video 😍👌
Thanks Walter!
Nice! Are there any SD35s around anymore?
I'm not really sure, I'd like to say that there's at least a couple running about but I don't know for certain.
@@JackCarsonsRailroadVideos Cool.. Thanks for the info.
From what I’ve heard there’s a EX Sou sd35 high hood at a abandoned coal mine were it worked before it was abandoned
@@TrainFan119 ooh cool
I have a number board from 2003!
Well done sir as always.
Thanks Jay.. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Cool the way you can dig into the history of one locomotive. Too bad they didn't keep the anniversary stuff on the 2003. I didn't know that they had a maroon and yellow scheme.
Thanks Jim.. Yep, the R&N has two rebuilt Geeps that they painted Maroon & Yellow and used in excursion service.. Today, there pretty much daily fodder.. I'll post a picture in the community tab around 9 a.m..
More interesting narrative !!!!Thanks
Thanks James.
Nice Job AC
Thanks Tim
AC is the ex UP loco a SD-40, or a SD-38? Joeoz3751
SD40-2
1:23
ah yes, the shithole I call home
There is also older canadian locos and most noticeable loco is (henschel) AA22
Interesting
I think Reading & Northern is my favorite railroad.
They have a lot of pride.
The SD45s are sad
Is this locomotive still active?
Yes, although the lack of dynamic brakes makes operations a bit harder
Nice video!
Thanks James.
nice
Thanks Phil
@@Trains21 your welcome sir
I would like to tell you something i like mostly about USA:1PEOPLE
2BUICK CARS
3HARFEY SANDWICHES
4AMERICAN LOCOS WHICH THEIR SOUNDS KEEP ME IN HIGH MORALE 😎🎼
Ah yes, I remember when those same 3 SD38s, use to run through here in Lansing, in GTW paint before they went to Reading.
That must be a heck of a memory. Thanks for sharing.
