The two tracks just south of the engine shops. On Google earth, you can see it between the shops and the car repair facility.

Great production! By far the best coverage of 2816’s tour.
@saludaofficialYT7 күн бұрын
This footage is amazing! 2816 is really a marvel and is very impressive. Personally I really hope CPKC doesn’t retire 2816 after the tour, because ignoring some real controversy and craziness in central Mexico, The tour was a real success, and it seems like the crews are taking amazing care of the engine,so it likely will be in good shape! And maybe if that Harrison guy didn’t get in charge, 2816 would have [maybe] been joined by G5a 1201. Hopefully CPKC can keep 2816 running (and PLEASE someday team up with 261 again), and continue with their original plans to evaluate 1201. That aside, this is absolutely amazing footage and deserves a award! Keep up the good work!

And I wish 2816 comes to Portland Oregon and team up sometimes with sp 4449 so 4449 can have auxiliary water tender back with 4449!

I know some current top level executives in the Calgary office. They won't do that. Hunter Harrison was the one who cancelled trips they would sell because it lost the company money. He wanted to sell the train but some executives told him that train is part of their heritage and they just put it into storage. From what I have heard it's basically going to live on but just hang out around Calgary and area again. Like how it use to.

My mom worked for CP a long time ago. Back they would sell tickets for trips on the 2816 Empress. She got me on a trip since employees would get 1st crack at the tickets. I was young but this is one of the memories I have. Getting to ride on this train on CP's main line.

13:23 It is really quite cool to see the visible shift when the 2816 starts, as most steam locomotives do. Glad you caught this!

That was nice of CPKC letting you ride the RCP with #2816. The Selkirk dome car was especially beautiful, and I can imagine it in SP Daylight colors... Speaking of the Selkirk name, I am reminded of the fact that its also the designation CP had for its 2-10-4s, instead of the normal Texas designation.

I also forgot, I had to chuckle about the history of the Glacier dining car. If that car has a spirit, it would be fairly embarrassed that its working now for the rival of the railroad it originally worked for!

I can promise you that before I was fortunate enough to meet you in person at the Shreveport Railroad Museum event a month or so back, I would never have willingly sat through--and truly enjoyed--a 25-minute video about a train.

I was able to watch this train pass in my town both directions. What is the car behind the engines that sounds like a motor running and it has an exhaust pipe out the top?

That would be the tender. Steam is used to keep the heavy oil from gelling in cold weather, and the pipe exhausts the used steam.
