More Passenger Power for the Reading & Northern RR | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Recent purchases. One F unit is a CNJ and the other looks like a WNY&O. Sorry, but the pictures are from this mornings paper. Wouldn't mind seeing the CNJ in blue and orange.

These F units were owned by the shortline the Southern Railroad of New Jersey that used a logo based off of the CNJ's logo. Neither locomotive is painted for its original railroad.

I would imagine they'll probably receive an old Reading paint scheme.

I think they were both BL&E units. Glad Reading & Northern bought them before some hop-head torched them at Winslow Junction........

Both F7s are original B&LE, the RDC was originally NYNH&H #43.

Word on the street is that the F units are going to be painted in a Lehigh New England style paint job.
