- This was History in the making with train action that was never before seen until now...
Today 6/22/2024 was a day for the books, it was the day that Reading & Northern's T1 Steam Locomotive #2102 not only departed from a brand new train station, but it also operated on sections of track that it's never ran on before (to my knowledge).
Since this is an event that has never happened before, I knew droves of people would be out to witness this event, so instead of opting for an all day chase, I strategically picked a few locations to film her in action in both directions, including turning around on the WYE at the Pittston yard.
It's great to finally see steam make it to this part of Pennsylvania and it shows that people love seeing it as well. Also be sure to check out the onboard footage from my friend @JamieMakin.

#JPVideos #2102 #steamlocomotive
Thanks for joining me as I captured 2102 on this historic run. What was your favorite viewing location?
Awesome job. This was exciting from start to finish. The whistle blowing and the steam when you caught it with the mountains in the background. Made me think of the old western movies. It was so shiny made me jealous, wished I could get my truck to shine like that lol. I do have midnight train air horn on my truck too. Thanks for filming this really enjoyed it
A Pleasure J P U wr n a loco one time. Brian Ireland. 🇨🇮🇺🇸😎 just met people from Maryland n Montana ds wk I LOVE Pa. maybe will get tr Someday Man
I got to see it from Tunkhannock while I was test driving a Jeep Wrangler that I recently bought not long after. And I got to see 2102 heading back to Tunkhannock Auto Mart.
There is something quite magical about watching an old train in motion. The distinctive sound of the whistle, the clickety-clack, and the whoosh of air in its wake is soul-stirring and oddly comforting. America lost something when train travel came out of fashion as the principal mode of long distance transportation. Thank you for this trip back in time!
Oh the beautiful music 🎶 those steam whistles make coming through the valley. Thanks for bringing us along for the historic event😊, you don't know it, but as far as I know I've tagged along in most, if not all of your adventures
Thanks for coming along on my adventures
Wow! Beautiful Reading and Northern Steam Locomotive! And Very sharp 1920 heavyweight passenger cars as well as 1930s! The Wye is a very efficient way to turn Locomotives around. Thanks for taking us along!!!!
Awesome event JP! Great video work! The black and white really adds to the effect too! Thanks for bringing us along!👍
Wow! So glad this fell across my YT feed! Absolutely beautiful video of this "sentimental journey" thank you JPVideos!
Awesome video!! You picked some great locations, definitely got a better angle than me at Ransom (part of chasing lol, got there later than anticipated). That cemetery shot was awesome too, I’m definitely gonna have to do that one next time. It sure was a hot day, but glad you came out to witness this historic event!
I got the cemetery idea from you for the inaugural Pittston trip last year. Despite the heat, it was a great day of action.
@@JPVideos81 I’m glad I could serve as some inspiration lol!
I was on this train! I was right behind the luggage car (fun fact: I hit 1K subs while on this train)
Thank you for sharing this experience. It was so great to see.
I grew up in west Central wisconsin,im a hill person.good old Wisconsin hillbilly,one leg is shorter from walking on hills.alot.now ima flat lander,cant drive any thing no more,still have a Honda rebel. In my garage.2019 never got a chance to enjoy it.much.had a atv,sold it,boat,gone.truck ,gone,just memorys is all that's left.love your vidios!!!
Come on already SEDA-COG and sell the SVRR to the RNRR. Why would you NOT want something as wonderful as this for Northumberland County?
Beautiful example of science/history and art.
Thanks for taking the steps for us.
Central California 👀
The locomotives sound is enhanced by the surrounding mountains.Great views and videography!!Thanks
Excellent video and documentary narration! I live in Mountaintop and always love when #425 is in town. I have seen #2102 in Jim Thorpe a few times (the Double Header was a thrill), but it was wonderful seeing and recording her pass by our development off Kirby Ave!!!
The only regret I have about moving to Pittsburgh from NEPA is being so far away from some of these great railroads.
Yeah, there isn't really any operating steam in western PA. But, you could ride behind the NKP 765 at the CVSR south of Cleveland, OH usually in September and a few years ago they ran there in May. The 765 was actually on this route on August 22 and 23, 2015 during a Norfolk Southern 21st Century Steam excursion from west of Bethlehem to Pittston and return. I was on it. I live west of Allentown, PA.
At 15:09 you can see me running up the hill to my dad. I needed him to unlock the car because my phone overheated and I needed an icepack lol. I've never been so scared before, because I didn't want to miss what I knew would be an amazing shot. We overheard the engineer telling a kid in Tunkhannock that the cemetery was around where the yard limit ended and that he was going to have 2102 wide open
I've watched your videos in the past and they been great, and I've watched other people's videos, that being said this video has surpassed all videos, my favorite part of the the video was waiting for the train come by the cemetery I watched that a couple of times 😀 from that clip to the end was awesome it had me smiling like a little kid thank you, working so hard and running to bring this and the rest of your videos to 😅 life and learning the history, my compliments sir
When I was young, there were still many steam engines being used on a daily basis. One went past my grandmother's house in Clarks Mills, PA.
Great Video I was at Penobscot and Got when 2019 Coupled with The Iron Ramble and the Water stop. But your video and coverage is amazing.
It’s beautiful, the sound of the whistle is both magical and haunting. 🛤️
Hey JP I was on board this train as a matter fact you can see me at 18:16 in the 6th window back it’s nice to see you Railfanning the trip :)
I loved your shot from the cemetery as the train came through the trees. All the steam billowing around it and amongst the trees was awesome. It was a nasty weekend for it with the humidity. Thanks for doing it for us.
I'm a almost 78 years young guy who used to be very active.when I was younger.hunting, hiking, fishing,camping,motorcycle, kind of guy,now I just watch lots of your vidios,I just watch on my small I pad.love them .thanks for entertaining me!!!
My pleasure. Thanks for watching.
Notifications worked this time. It came up on my icon on the top right. Great video. Love to see it.
That would be making you a RAILFAN .i like watching train videos on my tablet.
That I am
The one thing I always liked was our love for trains. This video was by far the most awesome one you created, Jay. Thanks for sharing, my friend.
Thank you very much!
JP what an awesome video! I love trains, loved the steam and whistles! Ramble away, you give great info and make it interesting and fun! Thank you for taking us along! Now go take that shower, you deserve it!! 🥰❤️🚂🛁
Haven't been able to catch her yet. I have a photograph from 1953 of Reading T1 #2108 on the Western Maryland hauling freight. It's amazing how these things were an everyday occurrence back in the day.
Great catches awesome chase and nice video
Great railfanning video. Let me know when you're doing the next one. I'd like to collaborate with you.
Absolutely!
THANK YOU. 😀
Just wonderful to watch this slice of history moving along. Thanks!
Sounds of a steam locomotives never gets old 💙
Agreed
Awesome video JP. Thanks for braving the bugs, heat and humidity.
This was great to see Jay! they really keep the old trains looking very spiffy. As always thanks for sharing this. Hi ti Jill and Lily...God Bless🙏🙏🌺
Great video! When they advertised for this run I knew I had to go on it. Got RJ, my mom and step-dad to go along. Very cool to see it from your perspective. I'm pretty sure I've never heard a steam locomotive work that hard before.
Great video. I will admit, I'm not a true train fan, but there is something primal about the sight and sound of the old steam beasts. The hair literally stood up on the back of my neck when it whistled. The older I get, the more I appreciate the engineering( no pun intended) that went into the creation of the railway system and those monster locomotives. All done with hard work and human hands and brains, not computers and AI. And I got a good laugh seeing RJ hanging out of the window hollering at you lol.
Its good to see her still chuggin. There arnt to many where im from. I think minersvill there is a steamer. Im a goimg to jave to visit where dis one is some day. Its beautiful. Nice vid jp. ❤
I was there that day. However, I was in Jim Thorpe while all of this was taking place.
This is absolutely beautiful! Thanks for panning over to include me filming her tender first myself. I was the one with the ERIE LACKAWANNA shirt. I ended up catching 2102 at Oak Street and the mighty T1 was so loud my ears were ringing and a headache afterward. I still have to upload my long range footage.
Wonderful share here Jay. Wanted to let you know they just opened one of those railroad peddle car rides somewhere out in Lancaster. Thought you'd like to know.
Wow what Great footage there Jp it is absolutely amazing on how the train can make the clicking sound on the tracks
Thanks awesome video I enjoyed watching the trains keep up the good work
A little late but great adventure thanks Jay for taking us along awesome video thanks
Thats a big engine is that a 484 ? And what kinda diesel engines are thoes are they a GP 90 and the green one in the yard looks like a Gp 40..??
Good cemetery for past train buffs
Hi jp I like the train video you need a shower 🚿 💙 I was very cool to see train
How did I miss this one.Trains are beautiful
That was an awesome video. Thank you so much. Love that whistle. Stay safe and happy.
Excellent job! Considering that the Lehigh Valley last ran steam along the Susquehanna in 1951 ..... this was historic
Appreciate you checking out this amazing run
niles canyon RR still had wig wag crossing
Fantastic shots!!! I especially loved the one going through the abandoned factory, really combines both of your interests well. The only location I saw you at was the cemetery in Duryea. At the other locations I was on the opposite side of the train. That was a heroic effort to run up that hill for the final shots. Looking down from the tracks many times that always seemed very steep! Overall I think you had a great strategy for the day. Much as I longed to chase it, I knew I'd have a much better experience riding the train. It was the right choice as there were a lot more railfans chasing than I imagined. Glad you got to see Andy too. He was sitting on the bench at the platform when we went by.
I'm rather pleased with my plan b shot and it gives great perspective of the other rail fans and the industrial location. That hill was surprisingly steep and the weather didn't help. As much as I'd enjoy riding, I love watching her in action.
The black and white beginning intro is beautiful! Loved all the views, but I think my favorite is the one looking from the cemetery when 2102 approaches out of the trees, with steam smoke billowing out of the smokestack, and comes around the bend in all its glory! Love the whistle, always gives me chills! What a gorgeous locomotive! Awesome train action and what an incredible historical event that you have now documented. It was fun to see RJ! Wonderful photos and thank you JP for going above and beyond with some unfavorable conditions to make such an amazing video! 💙
That was my favorite shot & location as well.
Wow ...awesome day ..Looked like a great family friendly event. I know you are worn out trying to keep up with it all ! Beautiiful job ...1st class video ..Thanks for including us in the fun of this history making event ..You earned that shower LOL.. ( Late catching the video ....laptop out of commission for a bit ...but I finally have a working "W" ...😊👍💙
Hope the heat didn't get the best of your computer haha. That shower felt great and was definitely needed.
😉👍 Very awesome Jason, great video!!! I hope to check out #576 Nashville's 4-8-4, when they get it restored... I got pictures of it with my son back when he was 6 when it was sitting in centennial park now he's 15. I can't wait till they get it restored. I hope can go down and see it run, as my brother lives down there. It's an Alco versus that #2102 Baldwin last of its kind. Also I just learned the Union Pacific Big Boy 4-8-8-4 #4014 steam locomotive might be coming through my area here later this summer/fall. I don't believe there's a schedule out yet for it. So hopefully I can catch it running down the tracks. I imagine it will be going through my area so hopefully. Anyway awesome video again Jason! Take care, man, and as always thanks for sharing. 😉👍
Hope you get to witness the big boy in action.
Great video! When 2102 did that last crossing, I thought those power lines were going to come down from the turbulence of smoke & heat hitting them! Good job of editing😊
😁
That was awesome! That is one big, long, beautiful engine! My goodness, what a beauty! A one point I thought trains were a dying thing, a few used only for certain corporations. It's so nice to see this project become a reality for those involved and know that some are still out there for people to enjoy and appreciate. Will you actually be riding the train to see things from the opposite perspective and of course to enjoy the scenery? Thanks for taking us along on this first ever marvelous journey. 🌟🥰
I will ride in the future, but I enjoying seeing these beasts in action.
Thanks JP. Awesome video!
Awesome! I would have loved to have been on it. Hi RJ! Had a lot of passengers. My fave shot was it coming through the trees. That was so cool. Thanks for sharing this historic event with us. It's hot here. Mid to upper 90's with over 100 heat index all this and next week. And I have no a/c in my house or car. Gotta love the south. lol
Stay cool 😎
This was so cool to see. I love trains and enjoyed the times we trained in the army of the loading/unloading of them etc. I am lucky enough to live near active tracks and anytime I see them come through I stop and watch to see what train unit comes through. Love seeing the Amazon trailers on there and all the others. The car trailers I wonder what vehicles are in them. And the amtrak is always good. Thanks for the great video. It is an oven right now. Stay hydrated! Lol you put in double time getting to the next traim spot you wanted to get to.
It's an amtrak that comes in the morning and it comes around a curve took a quick video of it but it would be so cool if I had better camera skills. I'll watch your videos with tips lol. A drone video would be so cool from that spot as well.
I plan on using my drone for the final ramble run in August
Imagine the R&N doing a very long excursion from Reading Outer Station to Tunkhannock one day, maybe bring back the Railfan weekend excursions as well in the future!
Anything is possible
Should've had your E-bike with you. Make zipping around to the different locations a breeze.
I considered it
Beautiful trains ❤😊
Good job, Jay. Thanks!
Awesome video! Wonderful whistle sound!! 💙
Love the echo in the valley
Love the opening segment
I really enjoyed this,thanks JP
My pleasure
Thank you so much for enduring the heat, humidity, and bugs to provide us with such a great video. It means so much to viewers that aren't in your neck of the woods but still like to go on adventures. Thank you again for all that you do...and endure for your awesome videos!
