The Reading & Northern has finalized its 2022 Iron Horse Rambles excursion schedule featuring restored T-1 4-8-4 No. 2102.
The former Reading Company steamer was overhauled in a $2.4 million project for the Pennsylvania-based regional railroad.
It will pull excursions between Reading and Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, on May 28, July 2, Aug. 13 and Sept. 3.
The May 28 trip is already sold out. Tickets in five classes of seating are still available for the other excursions.
Fare are not based on the age of the passenger and include standard coach for $99, crown class coach for $110, Pullman car private rooms for $299 per room for up to two people, first class dome car seating for $199, first class lounge car for $199, and first class lounge observation car for $210.
R&N owner Andy Muller, Jr. purchased the 2102 in 1986 and operated it in excursion service until it was put into storage in 1991.
The 2102 is one of four surviving T-1 steam locomotives and at one time pulled trips in Northeast Ohio.
