1935: THE "FLYING YANKEE" ON A SPEED RUN

From the railroads and trolleys folder, this beautiful photo of the Flying Yankee as it rolled into the Trenton station. Thirty minutes from Philadelphia to Trenton.

  1. The photo of the "Flying Yakee" train is taken at the Reading Railroad West Trenton station not the Treton station. The Trenton station has high-level platforms.

  2. This is still a viable restoration project here at www.flyingyankee.com. Thanks for the info on its activities before it was delivered to the B&M at Mechanicville NY on Feb 10, 1935. Looks as if the Budd guys had a little test run on the corridor.
