Reading & Northern freight, near Shoemakersville,PA. 12-23-18
Author: warren1977

On 12-23-18, I was waiting for the 3:30pm Santa steam train when this showed up northbound with little warning at 2:45pm.
Seventy minutes later came the steam train, but all this sweet light had vanished...
Not sure on this train's destination or how many of these diesels are actually on-line, but about halfway through the vid they throttle up for the grade approaching West Hamburg

Warren, 

That would be the NRWC you captured, running from North reading back to West Cressona yard near Pottsville, PA.  If I remember correctly only the lead unit GP38-2 #2010 was online.  

Thanks

I hear a turbo, so at least one of the SD40's must be online.
