Steam & Excursion > Reading 2100 in W. Virginia......(1989)Date: 04/24/15 12:56 Reading 2100 in W. Virginia......(1989) Author: Greg2102 Way back on 4/28/1989 the 2100 was stored on the Winchester & Western RR at Bedington, West Virginia. Made the treck out there and got some slides of her sitting there.

I hope the group acquiring it can put it back to this condition. It's going to take a lot of work, but she would be worth it. I know I'll try to donate to it. First thing I hope they do is scrap all the non stock side skirting. She'd look best in basic black.

If any of you folks have more photos of this locomotive. Please post them. Put them in my scrap book OR P M me to send the to my email address. Thank you. Mike in Ohio Edited 2 time(s).

They'll be scans of old pictures and not up to today's standard. One of them had 1293 in steam on another track behind/beside her, and if you don't know better she looks to be in steam herself.
I hope the Fire Up crew is able to bring her back. Rebecca Morgan Jacobsburg, OH Date: 04/25/15 18:56 Re: Reading 2100 in W. Virginia......(1989) Author: Keystone1 Anyone notice the incorrect headlight visor on the headlight? Reading engines didn't have them.
