Image information
The Reading's Gordon Engine Facility along the Mahanoy & Shamokin Branch was a key terminal in the steam era, serving as a base for pusher locomotives for trains ascending the 2.6% Locust Summit grade, with the requisite coal and water facilities. Mark used a variety of historical documentation sources as a reference in constructing his models - photos from the Houser Collection, Jim Holton's 2-volume history of the Reading, the works of Ben Bernhart, issues of the RCTHS Bee Line, and the various published books on the Reading and its facilities.
