I’ve never been to Canada before but I don’t think you’ve ever really railfanned until you’ve railfanned with scenery like this!

Been to Canada before, just manitoba though its pretty boring there. If you go to canada, don't visit the part of Manitoba north of ND 😂

Thanks for showing what Tank Hill looks like now, not at all like it was in 2014 when I last drove there!

[@TracksideTyson]

I was going to make its own separate video of the location as its quite popular now after the washouts, decided to toss this clip into this mix of coal trains and I'm really glad you found and noticed this spot from my 34:44 length of video haha. Thanks for watching my videos your support is really appreciated!!

[@oysesp]

@@TracksideTyson The canyons are very spectactular places, I just wonder where the first clip is filmed?

[@tjguy98]

After the first 30 seconds the word that comes to mind for the videography is "immaculate". Such a great location shot lends itself to the video being considered "art" rather than just a train video. Well done Tyson, your scenery compilations are what keep bringing me back to your channel.

[@flyingbeaver57]

Thank you for posting this Tyson. Although I'm (whisper it) from Alberta, I've spent quite a lot of time in the areas in your videos, including the Thompson Canyon and the Fraser Canyon down Highway 1, through Yale down to Hope. Any time I'm going west, I always feel sorry to be leaving there, in order to suffer the weirdness that seems to increase as Vancouver gets closer, lol. There are many good places to see both CP and CN at work. The one thing I don't have is a video camera (mine was "borrowed" by some 5-finger discount artiste), so these videos have twice the value for me, especially since we are still living inside fences, real or "regulatory." Some day we're going to see "normal life" again, and visiting in person will be possible once again. So here's a big shout-out to you for your great videos. I've seen railroads in many countries, but there's really nothing quite like this stretch, so Thank You!

[@TracksideTyson]

Hello, I enjoyed reading your comment and we definitely have a similar point of view about Vancouver! Although I have found some odd people out in the mountain woods camping in some weird remote spots that no one would find except for people like you and I. Thanks for all the support from a brother in AB!

[@MXC4life]

What an amazing Collab!

[@TracksideTyson]

Many thanks for your supportive comment!

[@scotty4579]

Great video I loved this one, ubiquitous 152 car coal trains 😂 and that CN Monster at the end

[@TracksideTyson]

Yes good eye that CN coal train was twice the size of the CP coals they like running close to 890-900 axles where as CP runs 626-632 axle coal trains. Thanks for watching Scotty!

[@SouthernAlbertaRail]

Fantastic video, thanks a bunch for posting. I spent many years trucking through this area and loved seeing it again. Quite interesting to see how the bottom of Tank Hill has changed as a result of the washout. Loved the weathering on 8778, guessing an accidental spritz at Notch Hill. Great resource for those of us modelling CP coal trains. Cheers. -grant

[@TracksideTyson]

Glad I could freshen up those memories! Yes Tank Hill has seen better days, and I’d say at least all CP units on coal trains are spritzed up and sprinkled with a little magic fairy coal dust. Thanks for the great comment!

[@walterpeters3536]

I had the privilege of setting foot into 1 of those canadian pacific trains in Revelstoke B.C when I was driving truck a few years back I'm like wow I need 1 of these engines just for the fun of it.

[@canuckster24]

Awesome as always, I couldn't for the life of me figure where you are around 16:35, where is that crossing? I've been all up and down the canyon on Google earth, I figure you're on the CP line as well since it's eastbound.

[@TracksideTyson]

That is Tank Hill which is East of Lytton, this was a railroad bridge over Highway 1 and it was washed out late last year 2021 which washed out the bridge and highway structure, so I believe this crossing is temporary until they put a new one in or highway overpass. Google "Tank Hill washout" and you will find this location. Thanks for watching my video!

[@canuckster24]

@@TracksideTyson Yeah found it, you can even see on google earth that it has taken the divergence into account on the actual routing of the highway which doesn't overlap the actual picture, kinda neat.

Interesting footage as usual. However the description says to check below for info about the trains in the video and to skip to chapters in the video, but those items don't appear.

[@TracksideTyson]

Most of my videos will have the chapters and information and some videos don’t simply because I didn’t get the time to fill it out but I try my best for each video! Thanks for watching and commenting your feedback!

[@dharmaraopattnaik8299]

Really it is amazing😅

[@dirkvanelteren5234]

That must be a very strong lock at the front side of this extream long coaltrain 👌🏻

[@TracksideTyson]

Not only does the first coupler pull hard but they all do equally together, if there was only one coupler holding the entire train together it would definitely break! but each car is coupled to each other to make this work.

[@grampus2112]

The couplers are not fastened rigidity the the wagon , they are sprung not sure of the technical terms but wagon 1 only pulls wagon 2 .wagon w pulls wagon 3 etc all the way down the train .plus with having DPUs they keep the couplings close

[@kens.3729]

I’ve been to Alberta and British Columbia twice and I’m afraid if I visited a 3rd time, I would never return back to the US. 😬👍

With what’s going on it’s quite possible

[@kevinharris1392]

Coal trains are the best. Big difference in the landscape between the Thompson canyon and the Fraser canyon.

So much burning takes place

[@AlikStansberry]

One thing the U.S. and Canada seem to have in common. They both really like their coal and need so much of it. Seriously, it’s insane how much coal is usual moved just by train.

[@TracksideTyson]

But the funny thing is the coal here isn’t being used to power Canada, but shipped across British Columbia and headed overseas to be used in countries like China for ex.

[@edy21865]

@@TracksideTyson Canada already has plenty of coal for itself. That is why these are being exported for money.

I worked this line when I was a kid. That was forty years ago. All that coal is going to be burned for electricity for the cities in the U.S. and some cities in Canada. The combustion of all that coal will eventually be in our atmosphere. In the past, the railroad transported grain and general commerce to relative destinations.
