Taking a Ride on the REAL Reading

RDG's Kempton Station

What's the difference between a GP40-2 and GP39-2? What year did the Reading dieselize? How many tracks were in Rutherford Yard? This board focuses on a discussion of questions or issues concerning the "prototype" Reading Company and its predecessors. While the aim of this board is to serve as a resource for prototype information for modeling purposes, general discussion and sharing of knowledge is also encouraged.

HoboPiker OFFLINE Conductor Posts: 227 Thank you received: 53	I was hoping to learn it had been moved to a new location. It was a good sized building for a branch line station, and the platform configuration caught my attention.

Did You Know?

October, 1962

Loss of mail and Railway Express Agency contracts prompts severe cuts in passenger service, including annulment of all service to Shamokin, and the Allentown-Harrisburg trains, and a reduction on remaining routes. RDCs replace most locomotive-hauled trains, freeing former passenger locomotives for freight service.
