Reader Railroad Photos
by Mike Condren

On Sept. 11, 1961, Louis Marre, Gordon Mott, Jerry Pinkepank, and I visited the Reader Railroad. I was driving my parents car on this trip through Arkansas checking out the railroad action. We caught up with the Reader #108 at Waterloo. This was before the Reader began its passenger service on its mixed trains. Gordon and Jerry asked the crew for a ride in the caboose. Louis and I decided to chase the train back to Reader and get pictures. Here we see the train crossing State Highway 4 on its return to the shops at Reader.
