No rookie mistake on your part. Just a case of enjoying new and uncharted surroundings. Great video, and great information that you share. Always look forward to new material from you. Keep them coming, take care, & stay safe.

[@LouisianaRailProductions]

I really appreciate it sir!

[@northLouisianarailfanning]

great video ❤❤😍😍

[@Robertmitchell2121]

Awesome video! Hopefully 2816 will operate again in the future!

[@trevsvlogs]

Great video! I have really enjoyed your videos since I started following last year, as I think your mix of information with the footage of the trains is a good balance, and its facinating to see this documentation of the only Class 1 merger in my lifetime (so far). Also, I found your comment about the SD70ACe-T4s at 6:55 interesting; I thought that they might remain only the domain of UP after CSX sent back their 10 last year, one of which I was lucky enough to catch leading a freight last summer. We'll have to wait and see there.

[@LouisianaRailProductions]

It’s definitely been fun documenting the early years of this merger. Thanks for watching!

[@trevsvlogs]

@@LouisianaRailProductionsCool, and yeah, no problem.

[@KenMcIntosh-p8c]

I live in Calgary I thought this was great to watch well done 😊

[@LouisianaRailProductions]

Glad to see some locals enjoy! I’m always worried I won’t meet their expectations as a tourists haha!

[@busrailfan]

Very Nice! I was out the same day recording trains on the Brooks Subdivision and got Train 603 with KCS #'s 4806 leading and 4112 trailing as well near Indus.

[@RailPreserver2K]

I know you said you were sort of done with the Ralph and stuff but your content and production style is up there with professional railroad films and that could be a good Avenue in terms of a career. Basically the shorten the comment: If you ever have an idea to make a full-length film or DVD concerning local railroads and their history I'd be more than willing to buy it.

[@SteelCentral1]

i second this

[@LouisianaRailProductions]

I really appreciate the kind words. Not sure if I’ll ever dive into the DVD side of this, but the fact that you guys would support it means a lot!

[@trainanswererguy8758]

Great catches Bishop! Especially from Canada!

[@WabashWesternRails1]

7:13 CPKC Just ordered 150 of these SD70ACe-T4’s

[@nickandrade6777]

Great video, guys, thanks so much! Have you considered incorporating drone aerial footage? a totally different and fascinating perspective. FYI, CP potash trains from Saskatchewan typically go to Portland, Ore. for transocean shipment of potash. they go into BC through Crowsnest Pass and enter Washington state at Yahk, BC. And i'm sure you know by now that in Canada, we call the 'plains' the prairies. As in the 3 prairie provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan (my home), and Alberta. Looking fwd to your other vids of Canada and CPKC in the USA.

[@LouisianaRailProductions]

I have, but I’m also taking stills while filming with a Sony. I’ve been hesitate on adding another piece of equipment that I’d have to load up. Maybe one day in the future, cause I agree the footage from a drone can be remarkable. I really appreciate your comment sir!

[@tfs4499]

Cool video!

[@KCTopDawg]

Nice CPKC Action bro

[@terryboldenjr.3555]

Saw a Autorack train in Mexico too with BNSF lead

[@railfansammy4974]

Nice chasing and catching

[@paulr7547]

In Canada, we call the plains the prairie . At least, that has been my life experience.

[@viscount757]

Agree. That was the first thing I noticed. Rarely hear "plains" used in Canada. Almost always "prairies", at least during the 28 years I lived in Alberta, both Edmonton and Calgary.

[@Travel-sh6yb]

Prairie is a French word meaning grassland given to this region by early explorers from eastern Canada in the 1700's and is more commonly used in Canada. It is used occasionally in the USA as some of these people also made it to present day Kansas & Wyoming, such as the Verandrye expedition of the 1740's.

My name is Michael Lockhart I had just subscribed to your channel.

[@dominic.g9431]

Calgary is actually the 5th most populous city in the country.

[@LouisianaRailProductions]

Odd population lists on mutiple sources I found had it third. Which ones are higher instead of Toronto and Montreal?

[@Travel-sh6yb]

@@LouisianaRailProductions ---- You are looking at the city limits stats. Metro stats show Vancouver is twice the size, Ottawa may be larger too.

[@dustin4]

Yay canada video

[@ChargerusPrime]

What's crazy to me is that Alberta is actually wanting to become an independent nation to alleviate the economic hardships and government stupidity they're dealing with. I genuinely hope they do it, what they got goin on up there with that knucklehead Justin is just horrible man!

[@Travel-sh6yb]

JT may be a moron, but he ain't gonna break up the country. He will be history soon, just like Biden.

[@MJohnny05]

Calgary is the 4th largest city in Canada. Vancouver is 3rd.

[@LouisianaRailProductions]

Google search said otherwise haha!

[@MikeV8652]

It's probably a difference between whether cities proper or metro areas are compared.

[@lonestranger]

@@LouisianaRailProductions That's technically correct since the city of Vancouver itself is only ~662,000 population. However the metro Vancouver area includes a dozen or so cities bordering one another, totalling 2.6 million+. When British Columbians refer to Vancouver, they're referring to the metro area.

[@Travel-sh6yb]

@@lonestranger --- they are all suburbs
