Viewing Album:  Viscose 6 on the Colebrookdale Railroad
 
By:Bob Krug
Dates:5/22/2016 - 5/22/2016
Album Info:Traveling 0-4-0T steam locomotive Viscose 6 is doing two weekends as guest power for the new Colebrookdale Railroad out of Boyertown, PA. This is ex-Reading Company trackage. The last steam locomotive to visit Boyertown was RBMN 425 back in 1993. Before that Reading steam lasted on this branchline until 1953. So it's been a while since the good citizens of Boyertown have heard that lonesome whistle blow.
