Eastern Railroad Discussion > RDC's by Budd

A most enjoyable day yesterday riding the Lehigh Valley Chapter NRHS sponcered RDC trip on the Reading, and Northern out of Port Clinton.
First we went north up the Pottsville branch' then south over the Main Line to North Reading.
Upon returning to Port Clinton we were given a tour of the Steam locomotive shop where the 425 rests, and the 2102 is being rebuilt.
...
The neat part of the trip for me was so many who I never met came up to me shook my hand told me they enjoyed my post's on fb, and Trainorders, keep up the good work, Jim Rowland President of the chapter even wanted to take a picture of me along with vice president Jim Danner.
Wow! Guess I've achieved celebrity status.
Frist stop Schyulkill Haven to explore the Station.

Looks like it was an enjoyable excursion.

Thanks for sharing your photos.

Thanks for the pictures.

I noticed in picture #5 there is a power switch, how much CTC does the RN have and where is it dispatched from?
