Reading & Northern 425 and CNJ 113 operate steam doubleheader excursions out of Minersville PA on December 14th, new. The 113 is an 0-6-0 type steam locomotive built in 1923 by the American Locomotive Works, also known as ALCo for the Central Railroad of New Jersey. The 113 is the worlds largest 0-6-0, she is one of the only operational Anthracite burning steam locomotives in the USA today. The 425, affectionately known as Four And A Quarter was built in January of 1928 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works of Philadelphia PA for the Gulf Mobile & Northern. The 425 is currently the Reading & Northern Railroads only operational steam locomotive, and is the good will ambassador for the railroad, and its steam program which tours its 300 mile rail system. \r<br>\r<br>Dont forget to comment, like, share, and subscribe to see plenty more great railroading videos from all around the eastern USA, even more of the 113 and 425! \r<br>\r<br>Photo charters: \r<br>\r<br>Dynamo Productions Web site: \r<br>\r<br>DYP Facebook: \r<br>\r<br>DYP Twitter:
