Nostalgia & History > Reading T-1 2100

Just curious, does anyone have any updated news about the former Reading Railroad Steam Engine T-1 #2100 getting ready to operate in 2026 as American Freedom Train #250?  There has not been any updates that I have found that shows the progress that is ongoing right now in March 2025 and as the months fly by, 2026 will be here in about 9 months.  Photo shows the 2100 on the famous B&O "Thomas Viaduct" heading towards Washington, D.C. in August 1964, running as a regular scheduled passenger train.  Photo in my collection, unknown photographer.

They do post regular updates on video about the restoration stage of 2100. I believe they're rebuilding the firebox currently.  I would check their website.  As for AFT 250 others can answer.
