Steam & Excursion > You know...about R&N 425....Date: 03/21/16 18:16 You know...about R&N 425.... Author: dcoursey I watched a video recently that showed 425 in it's older black paint scheme, and seeing it made me realize that she'd look pretty damn good if she were ever made up to look like a G1 Reading Pacific. Especially if 2102 is actually restored to operation. Anyone agree?
(Sorry, bored at work lol)    Date: 03/21/16 18:19 Re: You know...about R&N 425.... Author: HotWater Just my opinion but, I really don't thing that the 425 could ever look as big as those Reading Pacifics.
Date: 03/21/16 18:22 Re: You know...about R&N 425.... Author: dcoursey She may look a bit smaller. Not having that big Wooten firebox, for one thing. But overall, I think she'd still look quite nice :)

Thanks to our sponsor: Mitch Goldman and Railpictures (photo from Dec 2007 before the headlight was centered.) Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 03/24/16 13:48 by SFREER.  |
