During the summer and fall of 2024 I made four weekend trips to ride Reading & Northern's passenger excursion trains (high marks from me on the excursions). Before and after however, I did quite a bit of railfanning in the area, particularly Norfolk Southern's Harrisburg Line with a few trains mixed in from the Reading & Lehigh Lines.
