Taking a Ride on the REAL Reading
Philly to Reading
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.

003 was most definitely worth the wait showing the track from the tunnel is well out on the bridge and also somewhat centered there. I wonder if other photos exist taken from that view. A couple from the steam era would be good Christmas treats.

I suppose someone could apply color correction on this one to yellow over green... ;-)

Since I recall it being either SD-50's or SD40-2's that would just be a solid green correction. I should have used the Blue filter.

I would love to see the from above shot when (if) the gauntlet track was in.......

Think center rails cross, but not the outside... Shouldn't be toooo hard to model, makes for intense operating sessions.....
