Canadian Pacific 2816 "The Empress" Final Spike Tour 2024

On a warm spring day, Canadian Pacific was running it 2816 The Empress on its final spike tour. The first footage you see is the train as was leaving Milwaukee WI on the C & M Subdivision on its way to Chicago. You will hear the Steam Engine using its main Steam Whistle as it passes by my microphones! What a treat. This location is very special to me as the train passed by where my rekindled interest in railfanning started as I walked this bike path with my dog, Sonic AKA RailDog!
The second location was just outside Winona MN on the River Subdivision on the Mississippi River on it's way back to Canada after making it's way to Mexico.
