This regional railroad handles passengers as well as freight. It does daily Rail Diesel Car excursions and monthly steam excursions. Somewhere on their web site I read that they set records in 2022 for both freight and passengers. But then I could not find that statement later for reference.

Their roster is practically a museum of EMD locomotives. In addition to steam, some of the special excursions are pulled by F-Units.

| rbmnrr_trains "The 270 and 275 were rebuilt approximately 15 years ago by Norfolk Southern Railroad at their Altoona, PA engine shops for executive train travel on the NS system. The 270 was originally built for Baltimore & Ohio, and the 275 for Chicago Great Western. By late 2019, NS auctioned the engines and the Reading & Northern became their new home. The two diesels, F-9a number 270 and F-7b number 275, were received by R&N in late December of 2019, where they were repainted in a new R&N paint scheme." |
