Eastern Railroad Discussion > #425 and #113's Labor Day spectacularDate: 09/01/14 14:03 #425 and #113's Labor Day spectacular Author: tehachapi-dave Good afternoon,
Got up this morning to chase the CNJ #113, R&N #425 double-header and when we got to our first location we heard on the radio that #113 was having brake problems and would not make the trip to Manahnoy City. After chasing #425 up to Tamaqua we headed down to Port Clinton to see what was going on. A little while after we got there, the #113 crew got the problem resolved and started moving her around. There was talk of heading north to chase the #425 but they decided to instead head home for Minersville. Only problem was that there were about 59 cars sitting on the line going towards Minersville, No problem! As seen in the last clip, CNJ #113 gets the large string of cars moving easily. Enjoy the video! Don't forget, if your chasing steam on the R&N, consider donating $20.00 to support steam as the R&N has asked: http://www.rbmnrr.com/steam Tehachapi-TJ Over & Out. Edited 1 time(s).

I don't want to sound crass, but that was the show right there; CNJ #113 switching freight cars! Wow! Not that 425 didn't put on a nice show, but for a nostalgia trip, #113 pulled it off. Seems a steam powered switcher would be something that would come in handy at the R&N, eh? /Mitch Date: 09/01/14 15:29 Re: #425 and #113's Labor Day spectacular Author: ns1000 GREAT video!!! Thanks for sharing. It looks like you had fun.....:<)

Very nicely done video work. Steve Mitchell http://www.yardgoatimages.com Date: 09/02/14 20:10 Re: #425 and #113's Labor Day spectacular Author: up3985 Is 113 getting boiler jacketing?
