Reply to "The term "shotgun exhaust"..."

After inspection, mechanical work, and a new paint scheme, Reading, Blue Mountain & Northern 4-6-2 No. 425 headed trains on the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway on August 22-23, when NKP 2-8-4 No. 765 stopped in Jim Thorpe on her return from Pittston. Her valves were shopped at Strasburg last year. Now she is "dead square" and she uses less coal and water. The new RBM&N herald on her tender resembles the Gulf, Mobile & Northern herald on her Baldwin 1928 builder's photo.
