My family is from the Pottsville- St. Clair area. I have 3 generations of Reading Railroad workers. My Grandmother was born in the 1930's and her parents live right near and along the tracks that lead to St. Clair railyard. She recently told me that her mother knew when to take the laundry off the drying rack and inside the house so that the close would not get dirty from the Steam engine smoke and she also rode Steam engines from Pottsville Station to Philadelphia. During the late 1950's or ealry 1960's Grandfather took my Dad to Mount Carbon to see a Reading Ramble go through the area, but unfortunately never arrived. My Grandfather during the 1950's was a Brakeman on Reading GP-30's and my Grandmother's father was in charge of a section of track that started at Minersville and went through Frackville during the 1930's. My mother's one uncle worked for the Reading, but we dont know what his job was.
