Filmed on 5/23/26 Join us as we chase Reading & Northern 2102 from Reading to Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, on a rainy day, May 23, 2025. Despite the wet weather, we captured this impressive locomotive at multiple locations along the route, showcasing the scenic beauty and railroad action of the Reading & Northern. Reading Blue Mountain and Northern 2102 (historically known as Reading 2102) is a preserved T-1 class 4-8-4 "Northern" type steam locomotive, originally built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works (BLW) in March 1925 as an I-10sa class 2-8-0 "Consolidation" type locomotive for the Reading Company (RDG). No. 2102 was rebuilt by RDG's own locomotive shops as a 4-8-4 in September 1945, and it was used for pulling heavy coal trains for the RDG until being retired from revenue service in 1956.
