While on my steam adventure in PA and DE, I decided while I was staying right on the RBMN mainline, to chase the systems flagship train, the North Reading Fast Freight. This train runs 6 times per week, excluding Saturday's to allow trains such as "The Iron Horse Rambles" pulled by T-1 2102, to run between North Reading and Jim Thorpe. I was looking for a more classic approach to the chase, hoping from some classic green SD40's to be the power, however we were not disappointed to hear that both specially painted SD50-2's, painted for the NRFF, would be in charge of the train for the day. Lets follow 5018 and 5018, as they haul their trains along "The Road of the Anthracite"
