I dunno Charlie...the Pennsy's version of "short" looks like it's haulin' quite a substantial train.

Nice shots everyone!

Charlie - What is the car behind the tender?

Freight trains roll through the passenger station. Here a coal drag headed by Jersey Central F7A and F7B (Roundhouse/Athearn RTR) pass a stopped Reading local on its way to Pottsville. I know CNJ did not have any F7's and thus the scheme is a foobie but I have been after a tangerine and blue CNJ for a long, long time. The price was right on this pair so I grabbed it. Not the first nor will it be the last non-prototypical train in my collection. Some day I will get the elusive tangerine and blue CNJ F3's.
