Steam & Excursion > R&N #425 also in the news

Reading & Northerns veteran 4-6-2 is also coming out of the shop in the latter half of 2025.
There were a lot of memorable trips with 425 during the years 2102 was being rebuilt.( 2017-2022)
Hopefully the "Year of Steam Trains" will include CNJ 113, which recently missed all its Santa Train trips due to a malfunction.

With some tasteful red/white striping, 425 could be the R&N's own 250th anniversary of the USA steam locomotive...
Video is from a great day in Jim Thorpe, 6/24/2018, 425 was a little slippery out of the station area
Pic is @ Molino, PA. 10/23/2021

I'm glad to hear that 425's rebuild is not only coming along, but apparently may be done in the next year! In this day and age, whenver a steam engine needs a rebuild, when or even if it returns to service tends to be a big question.
