Reading Company 1947-1952, Volume 2

We continue our deep dive into Reading Company territory, covering freight trains and yards in the Lebanon Valley area and around Reading, Pennsylvania during 1951 and 1952. We’ll see a lot of steam power and early diesels in action with T-1 class 4-8-4s, big Santa Fe type 2-10-2s, 2-8-0s, articulated 2-8-8-0s and 0-8-0s running in steam. Diesels include EMDs, Baldwins and Alcos.
,br>Included is a special bonus segment on three Pennsylvania short lines, Huntingdon & Broad Top Mountain, a mixed train on the East Broad Top, and a quick look at the Ligonier Valley Railroad. This is an all color show, all from 16mm taken film by George W. Gerhart, II.
