Reading & Northern 425: The Journey of an Autumn Steam Train

Reading & Northern 425, the gutsy 4-6-2 "Pacific" type steam locomotive leads a fantastic journey through the hills and valleys of northeast Pennsylvania. Filmed over several autumn days in October, 2021, 425 wore multiple whistles during that time, battling grades, arriving and departing stations, and impressing a multitude of onlookers with a loud and majestic display of fine early 20th century machinery.
