Reading Company HN-23 and NH-17 Operating on Jim Hertzog's Shamokin Division

Join us for a trek through Anthracite Country as we follow Reading's HN-23 (Rutherford - Newberry Jct.) westward over the Shamokin Division between Tamaqua and Shamokin. We observe setouts being made at Tamaqua and St. Nicholas, and scenes along the Mahanoy and Shamokin (M&S), including East Mahanoy Junction, Mahanoy City, Lavelle, and others. We also observe the train cresting the 2.6% Locust Summit grade, and descending the 1.4% into Shamokin. Turning at Shamokin, we then follow NH-17 (Newberry Jct. - Rutherford) east to Tamaqua. We catch the train swinging downgrade at Locustdale Junction, and passing a mine run local at Gordon, before making a pickup at St. Nicholas. A three-builder lashup of second generation diesels leads the action on both trains, much to our delight. Filmed on 1-31-2022 on Jim Hertzog's wonderful Shamokin Division layout. Special thanks to Jim for allowing me to film on his layout. It is a true work of art!! Enjoy!
