Thank you!

Will 2816 at least still be sitting in KC tomorrow

[@MPHTrains]

Yes, it is still in town. They moved it back over at the CPKC yard (Knoche yard) after yesterday’s event. Not sure how visible it is but it’ll be in that area. It’s here till Tuesday 5/21 and will head west on the KCS main.

@@MPHTrains thank you. I'm coming from Elkhorn Nebraska. I didn't want to have a situation where I drive 3 hours to have it already left KC. Thanks 👍

We need more Canadian Pacific steam locomotives like 2860, 2317, 2839, 2858, and 1246 to make them run and alive again.

Was there a reason for the diesel change. Why take the E or F units off?

[@MPHTrains]

They wanted to show the new CPKC paint scheme at this event.

[@aaron-prime117]

@@MPHTrains oh ok. Interesting. But where did the other two units go. Back home to the workshop?

[@MPHTrains]

@@aaron-prime117 from pictures I’ve seen it looks like they put them back on and with the 7013 to finish the journey. I’m sure they’ll be on with the return trip.
