I am going to try to attach two photos of the R & N's 425 USRA Light Pacific after borough days on Saturday. The picture with the heavier smoke is slipping the drivers trying to back 7 or 8 cars. Also, one picture of the R & N's other steam loco.

I see the top pic the Reading t-1 sitting out to rust.
That is one that should be back out on the rail.
Schuylkill Haven Borough Day began in 1989, when the Philadelphia & Reading Railway station there was reopened as Borough Hall
The station looks even better when Reading & Northern 425 ("The Four-and-A-Quarter") arrives with a passenger train.
This newly painted Geep was dedicated to the late Jeff Seidel (script lettering by her front cab steps). Trains ran from Schuylkill Haven through Port Clinton to Kernsville Dam above Hamburg.
Jersey Central 0-6-0 No. 113 was there, too.
Nice pictures! I found some photos of the Schuylkill canal that you had donated. If I would scan them and email them to you, would you be able to tell me where they are? I and my neighbor Fred think they are between Cross Keys and Shoemakersville. Thanks! Luke
Great photographs! Thanks for posting them! It's great to see the 425 and 113 steamed up! 
And, as others have stated, it would be nice to see the T-1 under steam again as well. We can all dream!
