On Tuesday April 26th, Reading & Northern T-1 #2102 made her latest and most exciting test run. The locomotive pulled a 50 car empty "Hopper Jet" from North Reading to Jim Thorpe as a break-in run for the locomotive under load. The train was turned and returned to Tamaqua where the hoppers were set-out to be returned for another load of Pennsylvania Anthracite Coal. The big northern performed flawlessly with the big train, handling both dry and wet rail with ease on the heavy grades north of Tamaqua and at Hometown. Enjoy!

2102 is very good with freight trains!! 425 would need diesel assistance with that load.
It’s just amazing seeing a steam locomotive pulling freight cars
Excellent work!
Another great video! Can't wait to see it for myself soon!
HOLY SHIT THE T1s LIVE!!!!
Very enjoyable to see a member of the Reading rr T1 class back in service hauling a freight train , just like they performed in active service about 70 years ago.
Love the segment going south at East Mahanoy Junction.
Thanks! Was a really cool angle!
Reminds me of unstopable a little bit, where's Frank Burn's, don't see. Him on hopper car's 🤪🙈🙉🙊
Great editing and camera quality!

Great to watch this engine working a long freight train.

Cool!
Is this railroad it is running on a private owned line or public/state run. Im from the uk so dont know. It has all these empty coal wagons it is pulling. Does someone own them
The Reading & Northern Railroad is owned by Andy Muller. He owns all locomotives and rolling stock on the railroad, including 2102 and the coal hoppers.
8:30 looks like 2102 is clearing brush
No assistance needed btw i don't see a single diesel lol
