A shot of me next to the Rock Star of Eastern Pennsylvania railfandom: RBMN 425 |
| Description: |
ex-Reading Company Minersville Station to the right across Sunbury Street. Thank you to Bob Kise for answering my question: "When was the last time a passenger train operated out of Minersville?" The answer is: Dec 22, 1990, when 425 pulled several RDC's for a Santa Train. |

CNJ 113 and RBMN 425 side-by-side in West Cressona yard |
| Description: |
My favorite photo of the day; 425 has uncoupled from the trainset and pulled ahead onto the right track (which is the beginning of the Minersville Branch) to allow #113 on the left to back up and couple onto the train as the trailing locomotive on the double headed train. These photos from West Cressona were unscripted, and a real bonus for the railfans who found their way out to this spot. CNJ 113 is on the former Reading main line that leads up to Pottsville, where the RBMN railroad keeps the Yuengling Brewery supplied with covered hopper cars full of barley, malt, and hops. |
