In the Belt Line version of the four & a quarter which was built by Baldwin in 1928, the former Gulf, Mobile, & Northern 4-6-2 operates on special excursions deep in the Pocono Mountains at locations like the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway depot at Jim Thorpe, Glen Onoko cut, White Haven, Glen Summit, Mountain Top in pouring rain, the Port Clinton shops with onboard footage to Schuylkill Haven, Auburn Bridge, Landingville crossing under dark cloudy skies, Hecla, Tamaqua, Barnesville, State Route 54 crossing, Hauto Lake, Nesquehoning Tunnel, Panther Creek (Used as the front cover of the DVD/Blu-Ray Artwork), Hometown, Zenners, Molino, Reading Outer Station with more onboard footage to the Port Clinton Shops, Tuckerton Road, Peacock’s Lock Bridge, Leesport, Dauberville, Shoemakersville, West Hamburg, & Route 61 bridge. Plus, West Cressona, Nursery, Westwood Junction, Marlin with an out of order crossing gate, & Minersville with Jersey Central 113 in charge as the 1923 Alco built 0-6-0 is wearing 2 whistles.
Due to so many coaches & not enough Strength for the Blue Pacific, some trips would have to acquire diesel assistance. All of these scenes were photographed before the second restoration of Reding Lines T1 class 4-8-4 number 2102.
All in all, TJ Weber did a decent job narrating this program as well as filming the 425 & 113 in action.
