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.

Found this nice color shot of a "malley" in my travels. There is something to be said about color steam.

Last week was out and about and took a few pics of the Mahanoy tunnel. The first two are of the Buck Mtn. side, and the rest well pretty self explanatory, Bill.
